Date: 07 December 2019
Venue: Santiago Bernabeu
Real Madrid will be out to extend their unbeaten with the visit of Catalan outfit Espanyol at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The match is scheduled to get underway at 14h00.
Following a shaky start to the 2019/2020 season, Zinedine Zidane has steadied the ship with his side level on points with leaders FC Barcelona while they have already qualified for the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
Los Blancos enter the encounter unbeaten in their least eight encounters in all competitions, the last of which was a 2-1 victory away to Deportivo Alaves.
Zidane's charges will fancy themselves once again this week as they come up against an Espanyol side, who have failed to win their last five league matches.
Los Blancos enjoy a good record over their Catalan counterparts, having secured five wins in their last six meetings in the Spanish top flight.
Zidane will be without the services of Eden Hazard and Marcelo for this afternoon's encounter.
Real Madrid: Courtois; Carvajal, Varane, Sergio Ramos, Mendy; Casemiro, Valverde, Kroos; Vinicius, Rodrygo, Benzema.
Espanyol: Diego Lopez, D. Lopez, Bernardo, Calero, Gomez, Darder, Roca, Granero, Didac, Calleri, Wu Lei.
