Real Madrid host Espanyol without Dean Huijsen, whose red card against Real Sociedad wasn’t rescinded. Raul Asencio will likely replace Huijsen in the lineup as Los Blancos try to gain confidence and momentum ahead of the Derby against Atletico de Madrid, which will be played next weekend.
Espanyol have been a quality team so far this season, so Real Madrid will have to play with composure if they want the three points.
PREDICTED LINEUPS
Real Madrid predicted XI: Courtois, Carvajal, Militao, Asencio,
Fran Garcia, Tchouameni, Valverde, Guler, Mastantuono, Vinicius, Mbappe.
Espanyol predicted XI: Dmitrovic, Omar, Calero, Cabrera, Romero, Lozano, Urko, Dolan, Puado, Exposito.
