Real Madrid receives Carplus Fuenlabrada at the WiZink Center to close October. A demanding sixth league matchday against an opponent on the up and up and in which our players will look for their fifth win to stay at the very top of the table.
Chus Mateo's players went into this matchday joint at the top of the league with three other teams Barcelona, Tenerife and Gran Canaria, also with 4-1. They have won both home games convincingly +14 vs Obradoiro y +17 vs Joventut. Their opponent, currently 14th, began with three defeats but the arrival of former Madrid player, Pichel to the bench has turned things around, bagging two consecutive wins. Another very physically demanding clash in keeping with last Thursday's game against Virtus Bologna. Carplus Fuenlabrada known for being intense and powerful in this aspect of the game.

Madrid has the best offence in the competition 88.2 points on average scoring 14 points more than Fuenlabrada 74.2, with Musa and Yabusele leading the scoring 17.4 and 14.6 points respectively. However, the visitors have improved their offensive performance under their new coach 82.5. Seven players form their backbone; their point guard, Novak boasting a 66.7% success rate on three-pointers, the out wide danger of Senglin and Kromah plus the run of form that their first-choice centre, Ristic.
Rebounds and Defence
Madrid's rebound superiority will surely be a major factor, given that Carplus Fuenlabrada isn't exactly a specialist in this field. When we secure our own end, we are able to run and the offense can flow. Real have beaten Fuenlabrada in the league for the last five seasons. All out for a win in the last game of the month.
