Comments and predictions for Real Madrid vs Leganes: The White Vultures take flight

Latest Real Madrid vs Leganes squad information

Real Madrid will continue to be without long-term stars Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao due to injury. However, both are recovering well and are likely to return to action before the end of the 2024-25 season.

Ferland Mendy, Dani Ceballos and Jesus Vallejo are also absent, but Real Madrid have had no new injury problems during the international break, with stars like Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham all available.

Vinicius and Antonio Rudiger will return to the starting line-up after being benched against Villarreal earlier, while Fran Garcia is expected to continue at left-back in place of Mendy.

Mbappe is aiming to improve his goalscoring record, having already scored 31 goals in all competitions in the 2024-25 season.

As for Leganes, Enric Franquesa remains sidelined with a long-term knee injury. Meanwhile, Diego Garcia and Yvan Neyou remain doubtful, requiring last-minute fitness tests to determine their readiness.

Dani Raba scored twice against Real Betis before the international break while playing as a centre-forward, and the Spaniard is likely to continue in that role at the weekend, with Miguel de la Fuente dropping to the bench.

Juan Cruz – who scored twice against Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey earlier this season – will continue to be given the chance to start on the wing. The 24-year-old has enjoyed an impressive season, scoring seven goals and providing four assists in 32 games.

Latest Real Madrid vs Leganes football review

Real Madrid currently have a record of 18 wins, six draws and four losses after 28 rounds in La Liga this season, with a total of 60 points, ranking second on the rankings, behind the top team Barcelona due to a poor head-to-head record.

However, the Catalans still have a game in hand, against Osasuna on Thursday night, so Real Madrid could be three points clear ahead of their home game against Leganes.

Carlo Ancelotti's side entered the March international break with a 2-1 win over Villarreal, with Kylian Mbappe scoring twice. The victory was also the capital club's fourth consecutive win in all competitions.

Los Blancos are hoping to secure a treble in the final stages of the season, with Champions League quarter-final opponents Arsenal. They also host Real Sociedad in the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final next week.

While it can be said that Real Madrid have not been at their best for much of the season, they are still in a very good position to add more trophies to their trophy cabinet in the final months.

Real Madrid currently have the best home record in La Liga this season, with 34 points from 13 games at the Bernabeu. Leganes, meanwhile, have only picked up 10 points from 14 away games in 2024-25.

Leganes have faced Real Madrid twice this season, losing 3-0 in the first leg of their La Liga tie in November and then losing 3-2 in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals last month.

In fact, Leganes have never won against Real Madrid in La Liga, with seven defeats and two draws from nine meetings. Those two draws have both come at their home ground.

The last time the two teams met in La Liga at the Bernabeu was in October 2019, when the home side won 5-0. However, Leganes will have a physical advantage in the upcoming match, with many Real Madrid stars having just returned from international duty.

Leganes started March with a 1-0 win over Getafe, but have since lost back-to-back games against Celta Vigo and Real Betis. They are currently 18th in the table, level on points with 17th-placed Alaves.

Coach Borja Jimenez’s team – last season’s Segunda Division champions – have struggled away from home this season. However, they did cause a surprise with a 1-0 win away to leaders Barcelona just before the winter break in Spain.
