Real Madrid are away to Las Palmas today, and Carlo Ancelotti has admitted he’s expecting a difficult away game.

He stated: “We will try to perform at our best in a game that could be difficult because Las Palmas play very good football and defend really well. It’s going to be a demanding game. We’re motivated to get back to playing at our best and be more solid at the back.

“This week has been good for us, we’ve rested. The team is in good shape, we have everyone available except for the long-term injuries. We’re looking forward to it.”

Real will be without Jude Bellingham for this game, but Ancelotti believes Brahim Diaz will do a good job in that position.

Ancelotti added: “It could be Brahim of course, but we may consider Joselu. That could be another option for replacing him.

“We’ve been able to make up for the absence of important players many times and we’ll do the same tomorrow.”
