It's an early kick-off for Real Madrid and Granada this week (13:00 CET). Los Blancos are back in action in La Liga after beating Deportivo 3-2 thanks to Sergio Ramos' heroics right ahead of the Club World Cup.
Big names will be missing for Madrid. Bale is still out and so are Lucas Vazquez, Mateo Kovacic, Pepe and Sergio Ramos. Coach Zinedine Zidane is expected to start both Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema upfront after those two players missed last Wednesday's match against Sevilla. The two attackers need to build some momentum.
Granada have been a mediocre side this season and that's why Los Blancos should clearly get the win this Saturday, although they also expected an easier match when Deportivo visited the Bernabeu last December and ended up needing a very late goal to earn the three points.
Isco and Danilo could also get minutes today if Zidane decides to rest James and Carvajal.
