Real Madrid’s perfect start to the new season was ended in their most recent fixture in La Liga. However, they will be looking to get back on track when they return to action on Wednesday evening against Las Palmas.
La Liga Preview
It had been an excellent start to the league season for Real Madrid, as they had won each of their opening five matches to start the new season. However, they were handed a reality check in their most recent fixture in the league, as they fell to a derby defeat against Atletico Madrid on Sunday evening.
It is a match that could have easily gone in either direction, but Real were made to pay for making an incredibly slow start to the fixture. They found themselves 2-0 down after just 18 minutes, before Toni Kroos pulled an effort back. Atletico re-established their advantage just a minute into the second half. A response will be expected from the leading contender to win the title this term.
Las Palmas will be the side looking to cause a shock result in La Liga this week, as they look to build after picking up their first victory of the new season on the previous matchday. Still, the visitors have lost three of their last six matches in the competition, which included a run of five without a win before last weekend.
