    Alavez second sub: Pina comes off for Pere Pons
  • 75'
    The ref had to temporarily stop the game after his equipment came lose and needed reattaching, back underway now!
  • 68'
    REAL MADRID ARE AHEAD AGAIN! Modric's right-wing cross is palmed onto the post by Pacheco and it bounces across the goalline where Carvajal pokes it in! It's 2-1 to Real Madrid!
  • 68'
    GOOOOOOAAAAALLLLL!!!
  • 66'
    Real Madrid make their first change as Gareth Bale is replaced by Rodrygo
  • 64'
    Lucas Perez calmly sends the keeper the wrong way and slots the ball in the back of the net from the penalty! All level again now and Alaves have more confidence and could get something out of this!

Yellow card

a Real Madrid
  • 63'
    Sergio Ramos goes into the book for hitting Joselu in the face and bringing him down
  • 60'
    Alaves make their first change, as Rioja comes off for Burke
  • 60'
    NO PENALTY! Modric controls the ball poorly in his own box and it flicks up onto his arm. The Alaves players are bellowing for a penalty but the referee says no! Wakaso in particular is involved in a very heated exchange with the referee and is perhaps lucky not to be booked for dissent.
  • 57'
    Alaves have come out a little stronger since conceding the goal and have been trying to put pressure on the visitors since! A good way to come back for them
  • 51'
    Sergio Ramos opens the scoring for Madrid, after the ball is kicked in for him perfectly from the free kick and he is there to just get his head on it and ensure it goes in the back of the net. Kroos with the assist there from the free kick! 0-1!
  • 51'
    GOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!!
  • 48'
    Isco takes a long switch down on the left and drifts inside before curling at goal, but his effort is tame and blocked comfortably away.
  • 45'
    The second half is underway!!
  • 45'
    HALF TIME! Real Madrid go into the break the more confident of the two sides as they have completely dominated and had the best of the chances! Alaves need to improve a lot if they are wanting anything out of this game in the second half! 0-0 all level at the break!

Yellow card

a Deportivo Alavés
  • 45'
    2 minutes of added time starts with Pina going into the book for a bad challenge!
  • 42'
    Joselu is down and looks in real pain after a collision with Isco! He is back on his feet now
  • 36'
    What a strike from Casemiro as he just curls his effort towards goal from 30 yards out, but the keeper makes an outstanding save to keep Alaves in it! Corner for Madrid
  • 33'
    Alaves try their luck as Madrid's defence doesn't look that solid! Lucas has a shot but it is hit straight at the keeper and so is easily dealt with
  • 31'
    Modric goes into the book for a late, two footed challenge on Duarte and Alaves have a free kick
  • 30'
    WHAT A CHANCE!! What a chance for Madrid as Isco is passed the ball from Benzema and has a powerful shot from the edge of the box, but the keeper manages to stop it! Madrid all over Alaves here
  • 25'
    Corner for Madrid. Kroos for Carvajal. Passed back to Marcelo, who sends the ball wide. Bale tries his luck, but it comes to nothing!
  • 22'
    Alaves sweep forward themselves and Duarte lofts a cross into the middle of the box, but Areola is off his line confidently to claim it.
  • 21'
    Real are piling pressure on Alaves with wave after wave of attack. The visitors don't look as comfortable on the back foot, but they've been dangerous going forward.
  • 18'
    Isco has a clear shot and should have done better there, as a simple ball from Carvajal to Isco sees him sky the ball well wide of the goal.
  • 14'
    Madrid are all over the hosts, as they look to have a shot, but it is cleared out for a corner. The corner is taken and Alaves cannot clear it away, meaning that Madrid have a shot in the box, but it goes wide, as Benzema and Ramos miscommunicate and scuffle to both have the shot
  • 9'
    The first real shot of the game, as Bale receives the ball in the box from Isco on the left and tries to get his head on it, however the shot bounces off the near post and Alaves are saved from danger.
  • 7'
    No penalty given and play continues!
  • 6'
    Alaves have a break of play and run into the box to try and get the early lead. However, Aleix Vidal receives a yellow card for an apparent dive in the box for a penalty, which is currently being checked by VAR.

    Real Madrid get today's game underway!!
  • PRVW
    Kick off soon!!
  • PRVW
    Alaves are winless in their last nine La Liga matches against sides from Madrid (D3 L6), failing to score in all six defeats.
  • PRVW
    Asier Garitano makes three changes, Laguardia, Rioja and Joselu take the places of Borja Sainz and benched pair Ely and Burke due to a change in formation
  • PRVW
    Zinedine Zidane makes four changes to the side that drew against PSG. Courtois and Valverde are on the bench, Raphael Varane and Eden Hazard miss out all together. Areola, Militao, Modric and Bale come into the fold.
  • PRVW
    Real Madrid will be hoping to go - at least temporarily - top of La Liga as they visit Deportivo Alaves. They trail rivals Barcelona by goal-difference alone and, given that the Catalan giants face Atletico Madrid tomorrow, Los Blancos have a real chance to open up a gap at the summit of the table.
  • PRVW
    Real Madrid: Areola (GK); Sergio Ramos, Eder Militao, Marcelo, Carvajal; Casemiro, Kroos, Modric; Isco, Benzema, Bale
