We are underway!
The home side have improved their fortunes of late since rehiring manager Zinedine Zidane earlier this month. The Spanish giants have beaten Real Valladolid and Celta Vigo in recent weeks, while Huesca have won just one of their last five games.
The two sides last met in December, with Madrid winning by a single goal to nil. Huesca continue to struggle at present as they sit rock bottom of the league table.
SUBS: Jesus Vallejo, Lucas Vázquez, Sergio Reguilon, Mariano, Casemiro, Federico Valverde, Keylor Navas.
HUESCA (5-3-2): Roberto Santamaria; Yangel Herrera, Xabier Etxeita, Martin Mantovani, Jorge Pulido, Javi Galan; Damian Musto, Moi Gomez, Christian Rivera; Ezequiel Avila.
SUBS: Juanpi, Alex Gallar, Adrian Dieguez, Enric Gallego, Juan Aguilera, Aleksandar Jovanovic, Camacho.
That is all for tonight, thanks for joining us as always. Goodbye!
Zidane's men will now feel they can close the gap between themselves and rivals Atletico. They certainly look back to their best going forward but defensive issues continue to creep up. For Huesca they remain bottom of the table. That defeat could really affect their morale, but they should take pride in their performance. They gave everything and need to use today as motivation for the final few games.
Good evening and welcome to tonight's live coverage of the La Liga clash between Real Madrid and Huesca. Tonight's encounter will be played at Santiago Bernabeu as Madrid try to win their third game in a row.
Zidane will be confident that his team can kick on and grab a second or third before the end of 90 minutes. Huesca are doing all they can to make a game of it, but their fans will be worried that the pace of the match will eventually become too much.
