When Real Madrid take on Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabéu, they will be without one of their best players. Real Madrid are set to play just their second La Liga fixture in 2025 against the same side that held them to a 1–1 draw back in August.

Real Madrid have actually played four times since their last league match, which was a 2-1 success over Valencia at the start of 2025; Carlo Ancelotti 's side had 10 men and were trailing 1-0 in the latter stages of that particular fixture at Mestalla but managed to turn it around to secure a vital three points.

Los Blancos remain in a decent position to challenge for La Liga this season despite a couple of rocky results under Carlo Ancelotti.
