Additionally, Lamine Yamal tops the assists chart with seven, and Raphinha is close behind with six.

LaLiga Matchday 15: Real Valladolid vs. Atlético Madrid

Real Valladolid returned to LaLiga this season but seems to be on the fast track to relegation. They sit at the bottom of the table with just nine points, having scored ten goals and conceded 27, making them both the league’s weakest attack and defense. They recently lost 2-0 to Getafe, although in their last home match, they managed a 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao.

Atlético Madrid is third in the standings with 29 points, five behind leaders Barcelona. They’ve won three consecutive league matches and are riding high after a 0-6 thrashing over Sparta Praha in the Champions League.

LaLiga Matchday 15: Villarreal vs. Girona

Despite Alexander Sørloth’s departure, Villarreal continues to prove its strength, currently sitting fourth in the league with 25 points. They are unbeaten in their last four matches, with two wins and two draws. However, their home form hasn’t been as strong, earning 11 out of a possible 18 points andperforming better on the road. Ayoze Pérez leads the team in scoring with seven goals, having netted six in five consecutive matches.

Girona has faced challenges this season. In addition to losing several key players, they are also competing in the Champions League, which has stretched their limited squad. Nevertheless, they hold the seventh spot with 21 points and come into this match on the back of three straight victories, scoring four goals in two of those games. On the road,they’ve secured eight points, and the evergreen Cristhian Stuani is the team’s top scorer with four goals.

LaLiga Matchday 15: Real Madrid vs. Getafe

Much more was expected from this Real Madrid squad featuring Kylian Mbappé, but they have been underwhelming. However, they are only four points behind Barcelona with a game in hand. In LaLiga, they recently secured two commanding victories, 4-0 against Osasuna and 0-3 versus Leganés. In contrast, their Champions League form has been disappointing, with losses to Liverpool (2-0) and Milan (1-3). Carlo Ancelotti is dealing with numerous injuries, including key players like Vinícius and Rodrygo. Mbappé has yet to live up to his reputation as the star forward of PSG and France, even missing a penalty against the Reds midweek.

Getafe, meanwhile, continues to fight to avoid relegation. They are 15th with 13 points and recently broke a five-game winless streak by defeating Valladolid 2-0. Despite their low position, they boast the second-best defense in the league, with only 11 goals conceded. However, their attack remains their Achilles’ heel, with just ten goals scored—the worst in the tournament.
