Real Madrid enters a tough clash this weekend, as Julen Lopetegui's side locks horns with Athletic Club.
Los Blancos have shown an impressive form on both ends of the pitch, and it will be up to Los Leones de San Mamés to put an end to their unbeaten run.
The Basque side is still unbeaten in the competition after just two games. Last week's game against Rayo Vallecano was postponed due to problems with Vallecas Stadium, and that gave coach Eduardo Berizzo a chance to recover some of his best players that had suffered injuries prior to the International Break. One of those footballers is Aritz Aduriz, who is ready to lead Athletic's attack while increasing his goalscoring tally against Los Blancos.
On the other side of the pitch, there seem to be no injury concerns for Julen Lopetegui. The only change in the team's lineup could see Casemiro being dropped from the Starting XI due to the massive amount of miles he had to travel during this break. If that happens, German ace Toni Kroos and Dani Ceballos would be in line to replace the holding midfielder.
