Real Madrid welcome Leganes in a La Liga derby match on Wednesday in the Spanish capital.

Preview

Leganes will anticipate a difficult night in Madrid on Wednesday, with their league campaign in tatters before Christmas.

Luis Cembranos has been installed as caretaker manager after Mauricio Pellegrino left the club on October 21 by mutual consent.

The Estadio Municipal de Butarque side have won just five points this season and already appear to be on their way to relegation.

Real have experienced their own troubles over the past 12 months, prompting a second spell in charge for Zinedine Zidane.

Performances have fluctuated this season, and despite staying in touch at the top of the division, the former France international has not found the formula he needs.

Eden Hazard arrived as Madrid's big signing in the summer, but the former Chelsea forward is taking time to settle at his new club.

The Belgium international suffered an injury in pre-season, and it has taken a period of adjustment for him to be integrated into the starting lineup.

Los Blancos have been forced to rely on Karim Benzema in attack, and the Frenchman has continued to deliver with six goals in eight La Liga apperances. 

Gareth Bale has also contributed, despite being continually linked with a move away, and James Rodriguez has featured after returning from a two-year loan spell at Bayern Munich.

Hazard's form remains the key to unlocking Zidane's tactics, and he must start increasing his productivity.

The 28-year-old has just one goal and two assists from seven appearances in La Liga and Europe, and club president Florentino Perez will be looking for more in return for his investment.
