Zinedine Zidane will look to bounce back from Real Madrid's most recent La Liga defeat when they play Eibar today.
Los Blancos lost their last game 2-1 against Valencia in only Zidane's second match back with his former side after Karim Benzema was only able to find the net in stoppage time.
Eibar will be hoping to break their five-loss streak at the Bernabeu after winning the reverse fixture 3-0.
Sportsmail's Robert Summerscales will provide live La Liga coverage of Real Madrid vs Eibar below.
Gareth Bale was jeered by Real Madrid supporters as the team came back from 1-0 down to beat Eibar 2-1 courtesy of a Karim Benzema double.
The French forward has not let Madrid down this season and with his 16th and 17th league goals of the campaign they avoided an embarrassing defeat but it was still turgid and joyless at times, especially for Bale.
The season can’t end soon enough for the Welshman who was whistled off when substituted with 13 minutes left. He suffered throughout as home supporters took out their frustration at the team on him greeting every misplaced pass with whistles.
