Real Madrid vs Valencia: all out to maintain the Bernabéu winning streak
The Whites, victorious in all seven of this season's home games, are looking for three more points in LaLiga (9pm CET).
Real Madrid return to the Bernabéu after beating Barcelona just six days ago. Our team, LaLiga leaders, face Valencia on matchday 11 aiming to pick up three more points and consolidate their position at the top of the table (9pm CET).
Xabi Alonso's side, who have won all seven of their home games this season, play their final match at the Bernabéu before facing a run of six consecutive away games. Liverpool, on Tuesday at Anfield, and Rayo, five days later in Vallecas, will be the next opponents before another international break.
"The team is hungry to keep going and we want to end this run of results on a positive note,’ said Xabi Alonso at the press conference ahead of the match against Valencia. Our coach has called up all the players he has available. Only Rüdiger, Alaba, Carvajal and Lunin, who is suspended, are missing. Mbappé, who yesterday received the Golden Boot and is in excellent form, will be available. In fact, he has scored 16 goals in the 13 games he has played for Real Madrid (1.23 per game).
