Competition: Laliga 2024/25
Date: 1 Feb 2025

Madrid’s recent form has been nothing short of impressive, winning four and drawing one in their last five league matches. Their star summer signing, Kylian Mbappé, has been on fire, leading the scoring charts with 15 goals this season. With their attack in full flow and a strong defensive unit, Carlo Ancelotti’s side will be confident heading into this fixture.
Espanyol, on the other hand, are in a desperate battle for survival. With just 20 points and only one win in their last five games, they sit in the relegation zone. Historically, they have struggled against Madrid, losing eight of their last ten LaLiga meetings. However, they will be hoping home advantage and the urgency to escape the drop zone can spark a surprise.
Will Real Madrid continue their relentless charge toward the title, or can Espanyol pull off an upset in front of their home fans?
