Despite the short rest, Real Madrid pulled off an impressive performance in their last La Liga match, beating Villarreal 2-1 away from home before the international break. Having won their previous four games across two competitions, we think Madrid will overpower Leganes on Saturday night after beating the side 3-0 in their first encounter earlier this season.

Leganes recently ended their six-game winless run with a narrow win against Getafe on the 2nd of March but then went on to record a back to back defeat in their last two outings before the break. Due to their poor defense and lack of improvement in attack, Borja Jimenez’s side will likely struggle in their upcoming match against Los Blancos.

Real Madrid thrashed Leganes 3-0 as visitors in their most recent meeting earlier this season at Estadio Butarque. It was a difficult game for Leganes as they recorded zero shots on target against Madrid in the encounter.

Leganes were beaten 5-0 the last time they faced Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu in 2019

Four of the last five meeting between the sides ended with more than two goals.

Three of the past five meetings ended with both teams scoring while two ended with a clean sheet for Madrid.
