Who's playing? Real Madrid will try to take advantage of this weekend's fixtures to widen the gap between them and their persecutors. Los Blancos will face Leganés for the first time in a league match, and even if they seem to be massive favorites to win this game, Zidane's crew usually struggles with these sort of teams.
What time? Sunday, November 6, at 03:00 PST/ 06:00 EST/ 11:00 GMT/ 12:00 CEST
What stadium? Santiago Bernabeu Stadium will be the venue hosting this match. A sellout crowd of more than 80,000 fans is expected for this Matchday 11 fixture.

Team news
After a week in which Zidane's choice of using Karim Benzema as the team's striker was subject to questioning, the French striker picked up a knock during the team's UCL clash against Legia, giving Morata the opportunity to start the game. Added to the Frenchman's absence, Los Blancos will have to make do without Pepe, Sergio Ramos and Casemiro.

Knowing that this will be a tough match to win, coach Asier Garitano has focused on trying to make his team as fit as possible during their first-ever visit to the Bernabeu in a league match. Defender Adrián Marín is the only injury doubt for the Madrid-based club.
"We will have to suffer, but we'll try to be balanced on both ends of the pitch while making the most out of our chances."
Asier Garitano: "Habrá que sufrir, pero tenemos que tener equilibrio y ser muy completos en las dos áreas". #RealMadridLeganés
