    LAST MINUTE NEWS! Pedro Leon drops out of the Eibar line-up and is replaced by Marc Cardona.
  • PRVW
    The Bernabeu is gearing up for an interesting clash as the players make their way onto the pitch!
  • PRVW
    We hope you're sitting comfortably! Kick-off is in 10 minutes!
  • PRVW
    Karim Benzema makes an unsurprising start for Real Madrid today, given he's their top goalscorer AND top assist provider for this season. Zidane will hope he can continue his fabulous form this afternoon at home.
  • PRVW
    Zinedine Zidane contests his 100th match at the helm for Real Madrid today. Will he be celebrating reaching that statistic with a victory or can Eibar repeat their shock defeat over Los Blancos from earlier in the season?
  • PRVW
    We have seen Keylor Navas back between the posts much more often for Real Madrid, in place of Thibaut Courtois, since Zidane returned to the bench. Could he become a permanent replacement for the Belgian between the posts?
  • PRVW
    Eibar will be taking full advantage of Sergio Ramos and Marcelo's absence at the back for Madrid, as the visitors are just one point off the 40 mark. However, the last time they enjoyed a victory on the road came in October against Girona. Not an ideal situation but they will take confidence from the result of the reverse of today's fixture, in which they beat Madrid 3-0.
  • PRVW
    Eibar starting XI: Dmitrovic; De Blasis, Ramis, Oliveira, Cote; Pedro Leon, Escalante, Joan Jordan, Sergio Alvarez, Cucurella; Enrich
  • PRVW
    Perhaps the biggest shock of Zidane's chosen eleven, no Ramos! Nacho comes in to replace the Spaniard in full-back who will partner Varane. Bale is handed a start alongside Asensio and Benzema, while there is no place for Casemiro, Kroos or Lucas Vasquez.
  • PRVW
    Real Madrid starting XI: Keylor Navas; Odriozola, Varane, Nacho, Reguilon; Modric, Valverde, Isco; Bale, Benzema, Asensio.
