Real Madrid have made a fine start to the new La Liga season, and their youthful squad will be looking to continue their form this weekend, as they chase a third straight win in the Spanish top-flight when Granada visit the Bernabeu.
La Liga Preview
Real Madrid will be delighted with their performances across the opening months of the La Liga season this term, as they currently sit top of the standings. However, they currently find themselves in a battle for top spot, with Girona locked level on points with Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Real come into this match in excellent recent form, as they have gone five without defeat in La Liga. Over that period, they have landed three victories, which includes wins in each of the previous two. The Spanish giants were at their dominant best last weekend, as they claimed a 3-0 success against Cadiz away from home. Jude Bellingham was once again on the scoresheet in that success, with Rodrygo also finding the back of the net on two occasions.
This looks set to be a daunting assignment for Granada this weekend, as the Spanish side remain locked in the bottom three places in the standings after 14 rounds of matches. They have picked up just one win from their matches this term, and they have suffered the second-most defeats in the competition at this stage.
However, an unlikely win on the road against Real would lift them out of the bottom three places. Their form highlights that could be an unlikely outcome, as they have suffered defeats in four of their previous five. That includes a defeat in their most recent fixture, as they were beaten 3-1 away from home against Alaves.
Real Madrid vs Granada Head to Head
Real Madrid’s record in this fixture is stunning. They have won 17 of the previous 18 matches against Granada, averaging 3.1 goals per game across that period. Granada’s only victory against Real was achieved in February 2013, but they have lost on each of their previous nine trips to the Bernabeu.
Real Madrid vs Granada Prediction
The writing appears to be on the wall for Granada this weekend, as it looks incredibly hard to suggest that they could pick up a point from this fixture. Therefore, we will be siding with Real Madrid picking up maximum points in front of their home fans.
