Real Madrid tonight host AC Milan in a heavyweight Champions League showdown.
As ever, it has been a dramatic few weeks for Los Blancos. They staged another incredible comeback in this competition last time out by coming from two goals down to beat Borussia Dortmund 5-2 before being thrashed 4-0 by rivals Barcelona in the Clasico.
The club then boycotted the Ballon d’Or ceremony after Vinicius Junior was overlooked in favour of Rodri.
Saturday’s game with Valencia was postponed due to the devastating flash flooding in Spain.
Madrid, the current holders, sit below the automatic qualification spots in the new-look Champions League table and could certainly do with picking up some momentum.
Milan, meanwhile, got their first win of the continental campaign against Club Brugge last time out.
