Espanyol is headed for Bernabeu to play their fifth laliga match against Real Madrid. Espanyol has been always a surprise team. They surprised Madrid last season by beating them 1-0 last February but things changed now. For every team Bernabeu is a tough task, Madrid's are hard to defeat in Bernabeu in front of 1000's of passionate fans. Gareth Bale and Benzema playing wonderfully and their form are in peak. The goal, defence, midfield and front line, all is perfect for Madrid and their key players are proving they can win anything.

Espanyol Center defender Oscar Duarte and Javi Puado will not be in the team because of injuries, which is not good for them. Madrid could play with Varane and Carvajal in back and Courtois in goal. BBA could lead the front side and nacho and isco can sub.

Lopetegui is doing really a good job so far. His football ideas are working no one thought before and his rotation over player working nicely but I doubt how he will choose a team against big teams. However, I believe today game is for Real and they will nail it.
