Overview
Real Madrid are in good form, having won their last two La Liga matches against Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal. They also beat Atletico Madrid to advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
The upcoming match against Leganes will be of great importance for coach Carlo Ancelotti's team. They need 3 points to continue chasing Barcelona, as well as have a good start before the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final against Real Sociedad.
Kylian Mbappe will continue to be the number 1 star in Los Blancos' attack. The statistics show that the French striker is often in good form when playing at home. In the last 10 matches at the Bernabeu, Mbappe has scored 11 goals.
Other names such as Bellingham, Vinicius Junior and Arda Guler are also expected to continue to shine.
Meanwhile, Leganes are still showing instability, having won only once in their last 9 matches in all competitions. Coach Borja Jimenez's team lost 6 matches, including 5 rounds in La Liga and was defeated by Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey.
Before round 29 of La Liga took place, Leganes had the 3rd weakest attack in the league (only scored 26 goals), conceded 43 goals and was still in the relegation zone.
In terms of head-to-head record, Real Madrid are superior to Leganes. Los Blancos are completely unbeaten in their last 5 matches, winning 3 and drawing 2. If only counting the matches at the Bernabeu, the capital Madrid team has won 4 consecutive matches. It would not be surprising if Ancelotti's side continue to beat their opponents easily.
Personnel situation
Real Madrid will be without Thibaut Courtois, Ferland Mendy, Dani Ceballos, Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal due to injury. Andriy Lunin will feature in goal, while Vinicius, Bellingham, Mbappe and Rodrygo were also expected to start.
On the other side of the front line, in addition to Yvan Neyou, Enric Franquesa and Borna Barisic being absent, Leganes have all the options. Dani Raba, Seydouba Cisse and Juan Cruz were all expected to start.
Expected lineup:
