The upcoming match is against Athletic Bilbao away from home in the San Mames in the La Liga match day 37.  The last Real Madrid game was against Granada which was a good display in the all departments but had very controversial referring.

Real Madrid vs Celta Vigo: The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Celta Vigo at home in the La liga match day 24.  Celta are 17th on the leader-board and Real are top of the league. This is a chance for Real to extend the lead and as the gap at the top is very narrow,  Madrid is not going to take any risks this time. Looking at the  Injury list: Asensio Mariano James Only Asensio is injured. And he has not been practicing with the team. He has started individual workouts now. We hope his recovery is faster and soon he starts playing with the team. Suspended : None, Mendy has 4 yellows and has a risk of suspension. Just recovered: Hazard He has started practicing with the team for two weeks now but still a doubt to play as a starter. Practiced: Asensio is on his recovery process. Mariano and James are not with the team. Others are practicing with the team. Skipped Practice: None Coach Comments: None. Other Comments: This is a crucial game...

Real Betis Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

Before going into the next match I will rate the performance of players in the last game vs Barcelona in the El Clasico. Benzema: 5/10, Poor game that has very less involvement, only misses and bad finishes, final third game play was better than previous game but still not up to the mark. Vinicius: 9/10, Became the youngest to score in the El Clasico, had several good plays. The early yellow could have made him a little cautious but played his heart out and recovered 3-4 balls for the team. Isco: 8.5/10, Good game and a few good runs, a great shot at goal which was stopped by the keeper. He was good in distribution as well, could have taken a few more chances but was a bit of communication problem with Marcelo. Kroos: 8/10, Seemed the one to orchestrate the game. Great assist in the first goal and maintained composure throughout the game, even under pressure, coordinated well with attack and defence really well.  Casemiro: 8.5/10, What a game! With an assist or goal he would...

RCD Mallorca Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Mallorca and away from home, currently they are 18th on the leader-board in the league and Madrid are at the top. They have won 2 matches in the league and one of them is the last match. First I would like to see the  Injury list : Asensio Lucas Vazquez Modric Bale Suspended : 1.       None  Just recovered: Isco Nacho Marcelo Courtois Kroos Raphael Varane Valverde Mend Practiced: All except the injured lot. Skipped Practice: None Coach Comments: Zidane :  Zidane: "Modric, Bale, Kroos and Lucas are not available." As Mendy, Nacho and Marcelo are all recovered from injury the left back position is going to be a puzzle.  Varane has recovered from injury but might get rested for champions league game mid week. Ramos has also rested with Spain so should start. And Carvajal might get some rest after playing with Spain, and looking at the...
