Undefeated Real Madrid will be looking to carry forward their winning streak when they lock horns with the underrated Eibar.
Real Madrid are just four points away to reach the top position after beating Melilla, Real Valladolid, Viktoria Plzen and Celta Vigo across three separate competitions. On and off Real Madrid showcased a fair share of 15 goals in this season. Karim Benzema has started the season well, but Gareth Bale has just three La Liga strikes to his name this term, and the Wales international will be desperate for a strong match this weekend. With Real Madrid already facing troubles in their game form after Ronaldo’s exit, a gift consecutive will definitely boost them before they host Valencia in next weekend.
While Eibar’s disaster management might seems to be on vacation that has led them to rest at 13th position in this league. With only Four wins, three draws and five defeats, Eibar’s next move will be to grab 2 points to enter the 7th position before getting kicked out. In all honesty, Eibar should not be able to compete at this level, but they have more than proved themselves in recent seasons. Eibar’s goal-board hardly saw a sign of chalk, managing just 12 in their 12 fixtures.
Probable Line-ups:
Real Madrid: Courtois (GK); Benzema, Bale, Diaz; Kroos, Modric, Ceballos; Marcello, Ramos, Varane, Carvajal.
Eibar: Riesgo (GK); Enrique, Charles, Cardona; Fabian Ariel, Gonzalo; Ivan Ramis, Bigas, Arbilla, Caravella, Angel.
