Match Context & Current Form
Even though Real Madrid is no longer in the running for the championship, they are still hard to stop at home. Los Blancos have won three and drawn one of their past four league games at the Bernabéu.
The worrying element for visiting clubs is that Madrid can mathematically secure second place with just one point.
Real Oviedo, meanwhile, shows up feeling rather different.
After being demoted to the Segunda División, their season has already ended in disappointment. They are currently fighting solely for pride as they are in 20th place in the standings and have lost their last four games.
When your phone’s battery is just 1% and there isn’t a charger nearby, do you know how it feels? Right now, Oviedo’s season feels exactly like that.
Things have been far worse away from home. They have only won two games away from home this season, and they have given up a league-high 37 goals.
Just that statistic ought to make Real Madrid supporters happy.
Team News & Expected Lineups
The good news for Madrid supporters is that they escaped El Clásico without any fresh injury problems.
However, they still remain without Arda Güler, Kylian Mbappé, and Federico Valverde.
Expected lineup:
Real Madrid (4-3-3)
Courtois; Trent, Asencio, Rüdiger, Fran García; Tchouaméni, Camavinga, Bellingham; Mastantuono, Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo.
For Oviedo, the situation is much worse.
