Real Madrid host Sevilla this evening, with the visitors looking to keep pace with their rivals at the top of the La Liga table.

Real entered the gameweek atop the standings on 30 points, with Sevilla third on 28, and Carlo Ancelotti’s men are unbeaten in their last eight fixtures.

Sevilla, though, are undefeated in their last nine matches, so will also enter this game high on confidence.

Julen Lopetegui’s players were 2-0 winners against Wolfsburg in the Champions League group stage on Tuesday, keeping alive their chances of reaching the knockout rounds, a night before Real thrashed Sheriff Tiraspol 3-0 in the competition to advance.
