The Whites welcome the Valencian side on matchday 20 (2:00 pm CET).
Real Madrid return to LaLiga action as they kick off the second half of the season against Levante at the Bernabéu on matchday 20 (2pm CET). The aim is to secure a 15th league win and take all three points at home against a Levante side who are unbeaten in their last three games.
"We want to return to our stadium and continue the fight for the League," explained Arbeloa at the press conference prior to the match. For this match, the coach will be missing seven players from his squad, five of them from the defensive ranks: Lunin, Militão, Mendy, Rüdiger, Trent, Rodrygo and Brahim. Mbappé will be available, having scored in the last two league matches and is the competition's top scorer with 18 goals.
It will also be the first of two consecutive matches that Arbeloa's side will play at our stadium. In just three days, the Champions League returns to the Bernabéu with Monaco as the opponent on matchday seven. January will conclude with two away games, against Villarreal and Benfica.
