Real Madrid will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in La Liga when they continue their 2020-21 campaign at home to Real Valladolid on Wednesday night.
Zinedine Zidane's side have picked up four points from their two league games this season, drawing with Real Sociedad on September 20 before recording a 3-2 win at Real Betis on Saturday night.
Madrid will play twice more before the October international break, facing Valladolid on Wednesday before travelling to Levante on October 4.
