Real Madrid is facing its second match of the year. This Saturday night will be their first away match of 2021, in which Zidane's team will visit El Sadar to face Osasuna. After starting the year with a win over Celta and without conceding a goal, the team wants to continue with good form and increase their unbeaten streak of consecutive matches to nine.
Real Madrid will dispute three different competitions in the month of January in a relentless fixture schedule. All the more reason why taking three points from Pamplona would be very important to be able to go with confidence to the Spanish Super Cup, in which Zidane's side are defending the title.
Madrid will go into this fixture schedule with great optimism as they remain undefeated in the last ten league matches against Osasuna (8 wins and 2 draws). For this match, Carvajal, Jović, and Rodrygo, are not available for the game but the captain Sergio Ramos returns after missing the last match of La Liga.
The game itself is in doubt as Madrid and the north of spain has been battered by heavy snowfall. Athletic v Atletico has already been postponed.
