Real Madrid vs. Villarreal: Head-to-head record and past meetings

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 55

Real Madrid wins: 32

Draws: 17

Villarreal wins: 6

Real Madrid have locked horns with Villarreal on 55 occasions throughout history, and it is the capital giants that comfortably lead the head-to-head record, boasting 32 wins to Villarreal's six.

There have also been 17 draws between the two sides, while Cristiano Ronaldo is the all-time leading goalscorer in this fixture, having netted 13 times against Villarreal during his time with Real Madrid.

The two teams last locked horns at Bernabeu in October 2025, with Real Madrid running out 3-1 winners in La Liga thanks to goals from Vinicius and Mbappe. 

Los Blancos have now won all of their last three meetings at Bernabeu, including a 2-0 victory in October 2024 and a thumping 4-1 win in December 2023.

In La Liga, the teams have met on 52 occasions, with Real Madrid winning 29 times to Villarreal's six, but two of their last eight meetings in Spain's top flight have been won by the Yellow Submarine, one of which came at home.

Real Madrid have been victorious in just five of their last 10 La Liga matches against Villarreal, with the points being shared on three occasions, and the capital giants have found the Yellow Submarine to be a difficult opponent in recent seasons.

The last match between the two sides took place in January 2026, with Real Madrid recording a 2-0 victory in Spain's top flight.
