The month of February promises to be a decisive one for Real Madrid in all competitions. In the space of 20 days, the Whites will be playing for the leadership of La Liga EA Sports, for a place in the semifinals of the Copa del Rey in the match against Leganés, and for a life-or-death tie in the Champions League.
A future in which Real Madrid’s first tough test took place last Saturday, in the match in which they hosted Atlético de Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu. A match in which the Whites picked up a point that tasted like little and that, with FC Barcelona’s victory the following day, tightened the fight for the lead. Just three days later they set off for the Etihad to face City. A match in which the magic of the King of Europe in this competition came out again, managing to come back twice in a match that they would end up winning with a goal from Bellingham (2-3). Everything will be decided next Wednesday at the Santiago Bernabéu at 9 p.m.
Real Madrid visit El Sadar in the middle of the storm
Real Madrid will be visiting familiar territory, having faced Pep Guardiola‘s team on numerous occasions in recent years. The first round took place in England on February 11th, while the second round of this great confrontation will be played a week and a day later, on February 19th. However, in the meantime, the Whites will not even have time to rest.
And the fact is that between the first and second legs, the Whites will face a very difficult visit to El Sadar, in a match in which they will be welcomed in the midst of the European storm by an Osasuna with their sights set on Europe, in what is always expected to be an exciting match between two of the greats of Spanish football.
An Osasuna that, moreover, this season has already demonstrated its ability to topple giants, as evidenced by the defeat of Barça at El Sadar, in a 4-2 thrashing that ended Hansi Flick‘s unbeaten league record. A fact of which the Whites are fully aware, with this visit coming at one of the most delicate moments of the season.
And not only because of the schedule, but also because of the timing and the injuries that come with it. The absences of Rüdiger, Alaba and Lucas Vázquez have left the Whites’ center of defense short-handed for the next few games, forcing Carlo Ancelotti to have to reinvent a defense for these matches, as the loss of the two center-backs for this match is confirmed.
Osasuna-Real Madrid: date, time and where the match will be played
A match that, if anything, promises to be a spectacle, as always when these two teams face each other. And they will be able to do so on February 15th at 4:15 p.m. (peninsular time), in a match in which El Sadar will host the twenty-fourth league matchday, with a Madrid that will seek to maintain the lead, hoping for a slip-up from its rivals to regain a cushion of points over them.
And all those who cannot enjoy the game in the stadium will be able to follow it live on television through the DAZN LaLiga (M55 O113), DAZN, MAX, DAZN LaLiga 2 (M58 O274) and LaLiga TV Bar channels.
