class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The La Liga champions have been excellent at the back in recent weeks and we are backing another low-scoring fixture in the Spanish capital
Real Madrid welcome Real Sociedad to the Estadio Alfredo di Stefano on Monday evening in La Liga with Zinedine Zidane’s side aiming to continue their strong recent form.
Los Blancos won all five matches they contested in February and have kept clean sheets in each their last four encounters.
Their opponents this week, however, have also been on an impressive run with Imanol Alguacil’s men winning each of their last three league games.

Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad Team News
Zidane is still unable to call upon the services of Sergio Ramos, Dani Carvajal, Eden Hazard and Karim Benzema, although the likes of Fede Valverde, Marcelo and Rodrygo could return from their respective injuries.
The visitors are without suspended midfielder Mikel Merino, while Joseba Zaldua and Aritz Elustondo are out injured.
Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad Preview
The La Liga champions travelled to Bergamo in the Champions League with nine members of the first-team squad missing and while some players are close to returning to action, Madrid are still missing some key men.
Karim Benzema’s absence has been keenly felt with Madrid recording two 1-0 victories without him – the first thanks defensive midfielder Casemiro in Valladolid and the second courtesy of a long-range effort from left-back Ferland Mendy at 10-man Atalanta.
Given their low attacking output, Real have been grinding out wins by keeping things tight at the back and the plan will surely be something similar on Monday night.
The previous meeting between these sides this season ended goalless and there could be some interest in opposing another high-scoring game.
