Real Madrid will be looking to make it five straight La Liga victories when they welcome Girona to Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon.

Carlo Ancelotti's side recorded a 3-1 victory over Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday, with the result taking them six points clear of second-placed Barcelona in the table, but the gap is now back down to three points heading into the next set of matches.

Real Madrid have already qualified for the last-16 stage of the Champions League, but they suffered a 3-2 defeat to RB Leipzig in the competition on Tuesday, which proved to be their first loss of the season.
