Real Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they continue their domestic campaign with a trip to Barcelona on Sunday afternoon.
Carlo Ancelotti's side suffered a 2-1 defeat to Espanyol in their last league game before the international break, and they have since been knocked off the top of the table by Real Sociedad.
The capital giants, though, will enter this match off the back of an impressive 5-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
