Real Madrid-Osasuna: looking for a seventh successive LaLiga win
PREVIEW.Alberto Navarro
Real Madrid are back in competitive action following the international break. Our team play 14 days on from their last clash as they look to extend their flawless LaLiga run which has seen them rise to the top of the table. Tonight's opposition is Osasuna, who head to the Santiago Bernabéu for the matchday seven encounter 9:00pm CEST.

The aim for Ancelotti's men will be to continue what has been fantastic start to the campaign, having won all nine competitive games to date six in LaLiga, two in the Champions League and the European Super Cup clash. Tonight's game marks the beginning of a demanding month of October that sees Real Madrid play nine games: six in LaLiga and three in the Champions League.
“We're at a crucial stage of the season”, explained Ancelotti in the pre-match press conference. The Italian coach has already named his squad for the clash with Osasuna. Luka Modrić and Lucas Vázquez miss out, but Karim Benzema is back having recovered from injury, and September's LaLiga player of the month Valverde is also on the list. The Uruguayan has found the net in his last three Real Madrid appearances.

Opposition
Osasuna are enjoying an impressive start to the season. They sit fifth in the league before the seventh round of games, with a record of four wins and two defeats. Chimy Ávila, who misses out through suspension, and Aimar Oroz, are the team's top-scorers with 3 and 2 goals respectively.
