Real Madrid will take on Huesca on Saturday in La Liga 2020/21 as the season moves ahead. Los Blancos start this game as the favourites.
Kick-off : 2:00 PM (Local)
Venue : Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano, Madrid
Real Madrid after a mixed run of results in the last few games will now look to have a positive result at home as they aim to go back on top of the table.
Real Madrid are currently 3rd in the points table after 6 games with 13 points. The goal difference is +5.
Though Los Blancos won’t take their rivals lightly but Huesca are yet to win a game this season. They have drawn five games this far.
Zinedine Zidane will attack as always having a solid defence as they try to boost their goal difference as well.
Huesca, on the other hand, should ideally look forward for a win but Real Madrid at home will seldomly loose.
Azulgranas are at the moment 18th in the points table after 7 games with just five points.
Real Madrid will be a very tough game but Huesca will eye to hold them to a stalemate. They will need to play out of their skins.
Manager Michel will have a solid backline as defence will be the way to go and obviously be good at the counter. Positive frame of mind will be necessary.

Dani Carvajal, Martin Odegaard and Nacho will all be unavailable for Los Blancos for the weekend fixture.
