Real Madrid will face Leganes on Sunday in an effort to narrow the gap with Barcelona at the top of La Liga.
Real Madrid had a challenging start to the 2024/25 season but bounced back with a 4-0 win against Osasuna before the international break. Vinicius Junior scored a hat-trick in that game, and Jude Bellingham also found the back of the net.
Promoted side Leganes have been in good form this season, winning three of their last four matches. They will be looking to secure only their third-ever victory over Real Madrid.
Here is 90min’s preview of the local clash between Leganes and Real Madrid.
