Real Madrid continues to fight for the top spot and for that they need a new victory. In the last two rounds, they did not impress much, but still managed to win 2:1 against Villarreal as guests and Rayo Vallecano at home. The expectations now are for a victory, despite the quite busy schedule for a large part of the team's players. Real Madrid has not had a home game without scoring a goal this season and has won 11 out of their 13 home games in La Liga.
Leganes finds themselves in the relegation zoneLeganes will probably be remembered this season for their shocking victory as guests against Barcelona with 1:0. This remains the only away win for the team in the championship. At the moment, however, they have suffered three consecutive losses as guests, and in the last round they allowed a comeback at home from 2:0 to 2:3 against Betis, thus finding themselves in the relegation zone.
Prediction: Real Madrid to win and under 3.5 goalsReal Madrid needs a new victory and should achieve it, leaving Leganes in the relegation zone. The guests, however, should not be underestimated, and Ancelotti and company have already complained about the busy schedule. Real Madrid also had quite a few national team players during the break, so I also think we will not see a very convincing victory for the hosts.
