Real Madrid will look to keep their top spot in tact when they come up against the lowly Granada this weekend. This La Liga match will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday. The hosts are top of the standings with 35 points while the visitors are 19th with seven points. Madrid lead the standings over Girona by goal difference and will be looking to maintain that with a heavy win here. They are coming off a 4-2 win over Napoli in the Champions League which made it four straight wins in all competitions. Their league form isn’t in the same stretch though, as Madrid have failed to win two of their last five La Liga matches. Those have come against Sevilla and Rayo Vallecano, but otherwise Madrid have scored eight goals in their last two matches.

Granada are stuck in the red zone for some time now, and have lost nine of their 14 matches so far. They are still three points behind safety zone but their recent record suggests even that could be a mountain to climb. They have won just a single point across their last five league matches, losing four. It is their poor defensive record that has let them down in the division. They have conceded 33 goals already, which is the second-worst record in the league so far. Granada’s record is even poor on the road, as they have picked up a single point across seven away league matches this season. They have even lost their last three away La Liga matches, even failing to score in two of those.
