Real to Keep the Pressure on Barca

Real Madrid are desperate to keep hold of their league title. They are level with Barca on 60 points, with Atletico Madrid four points behind in third. Both Madrid clubs have played a game more than Blaugrana.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side have picked up 18 wins from 28 games, suffering four losses. After a disappointing 2-1 reverse at Real Betis, Real have responded with back-to-back league wins against Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal.

Leganes, last term’s Segunda Division champions, hope to avoid an instant return to Spain’s second tier. They are in the relegation zone right now, though just one point separates 18^th to 15^th. Borja Jimenez’s men have won six, drawn nine, and lost 13 of 28 matches in La Liga.

Leganes have only claimed one league victory since January. They beat Getafe 1-0 at home a month ago, but narrow losses to Celta Vigo and Real Betis followed. Saturday’s game in the Bernabeu will be one of their toughest challenges of the season.

Recent Real Madrid vs Leganes Head-to-Head Results

These two have already met twice this season. In November’s reverse meeting in La Liga, goals from Kylian Mbappe, Federico Valverde, and Jude Bellingham gave Los Blancos an easy 3-0 win at the Estadio Municipal Burtaque.

The pair also locked horns at Butarque in the Copa del Rey in early February, with Real winning a five-goal thriller. Leganes came from two goals down to level the tie, but Gonzalo Garcia hit the winner for the visitors in second-half stoppage time.

Real Madrid were too hot to handle when the neighbours clashed at Butarque in September, cruising to a 3-0 win. You can get 1.52 for the hosts to be winning at half time and full time.

Real kept a clean sheet in Leganes, and Ancelotti’s troops have won without conceding on 16 occasions across all competitions this term. The champions are priced at 1.81 to keep a clean sheet here.
