Real Madrid will be looking to make it seven victories in a row in all competitions when they continue their La Liga campaign away to Elche on December 30.
Zinedine Zidane's side beat Granada 2-0 on Wednesday night to make it five league successes in a row, which has seen them move level on points with Atletico Madrid at the top of the table.
Los Blancos will now be attempting to end 2020 with another victory against an Elche side that currently sit 16th in the division, just one point clear of the relegation zone.
