Real Madrid eye win at home against Leganes in 2018/19 La Liga
Kick-off : 8:45 PM (Local)
Venue : Santiago Bernabéu, Madrid
Real Madrid so far have had a perfect start to their new La Liga season after registering two wins out of two. They will be in a positive frame of mind and will be eager for yet another win.
In Leganes they have got opponents that are manageable and they should be able to extract maximum points. Although they shouldn’t be complacent and look to give their all and hope for the best.
Los Blancos next play Athletic Bilbao after the international break.
On the other hand, Leganes have not had such a great start to their new La Liga season and they will be aiming to register their first win of the campaign.
But they play giants Real Madrid away meaning they have lesser chances of a positive result. But they should not loose hope.
Leganes have their next three games against Villarreal, Eibar and Barcelona.
Team news and possible line-ups
Alexander Szymanowski will not be available for Leganes for the weekend game as due to injury. While Ezequiel Munoz is doubtful.

Prediction
It should be a good game as both teams will give their all but in the end I expect Real Madrid to get the job done and earn three points. I think Los Blancos are gonna win 2-0.
