Real Madrid will host Villarreal on Saturday, October 10, at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium as it attempts to stay in touch with La Liga leader Barcelona. According to the source, kickoff is set for 9 p.m. CEST local time, which translates to 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT in the US and Canada, 8 p.m. BST in the UK, and 6 a.m. AEDT in Australia on Sunday morning.
Real Madrid enters the match following a disappointing 2-1 away defeat to local rival Atlético before the international break. However, the club has received a boost with the availability of key players. According to the report, Kylian Mbappé, Ibrahima Konaté, and Federico Valverde have been named in the squad despite being listed as doubtful with knocks earlier in the week.
Villarreal, managed by Iñigo Pérez, will look to build momentum after a difficult start to its campaign. The source indicates the midtable side put together back-to-back 3-1 wins over Málaga and Levante before the international break.
