Saturday, Real Madrid meet Espanyol Barcelona for a poster of the 16th day of La Liga. Real Madrid wants to take the lead while Espanyol wants out of the red zone.
After a start of the season rather contrasted, Real Madrid has recovered perfectly in the good sense. The Merengues are undefeated since 19 October and remain on 3 successes in the league against Eibar (0-4), Real Sociedad (3-1) and Deportivo Alaves (2-1), last weekend. On top of that, Zidane’s players are quite convincing in the Champions League. After largely defeating Galatasaray (6-0), the Madrilenians have long led against Paris before being joined in the score against the course of the game (2-2).
It’s even more complicated for Espanyol who is only 19th and penultimate of this championship with only 9 points on the clock at the end of the 15th day. Moreover, the Catalans have taken only one point during the last 5 days in this championship. It was against Getafe (1-1). Otherwise, they were defeated by Bilbao (3-0), Valencia (1-2), Atletico Madrid (3-1) and Osasuna last weekend (2-4).
The staff for Real Madrid vs Espanyol Barcelona
The important Lucas Vazquez, Asensio, Hazard and James Rodriguez miss the call on the side of Real Madrid. Relaxed in the final game, Varane should make his comeback in central defense while Benzema was unable to score his 11th goal of the season.
For its part, Espanyol will make the trip without the central defender Naldo and the important Ferreyra, Vargas and Granera.
Much better than his opponent of the day, Real Madrid should have no trouble winning in this game.
