Zinedine Zidane’s men are on good form as Federico Valverde’s controversial tackle helped Real Madrid win the Spanish Super Cup last weekend.

While Julen Lopetegui’s side hit their stride securing a 5-0 win against Escobedo in the second round of the Copa del Rey.

What time is kick-off?

Real Madrid welcome Sevilla to the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on Saturday, January 18.

Kick-off is at 3pm.

What TV channel is it on and can I live stream it?

Real Madrid vs Sevilla will be shown live on LaLigaTV with coverage underway from 2pm.

LaLigaTV is only available to live stream, which you can purchase a subscription for £5.99 a month or £49 for the year.

What is the team news?

Real Madrid return to Spain with the Spanish Super Cup in hand, but may have to stick with an unusual attack.

Luka Jovic has scored just once this season in all competitions, but will likely keep his place as Karim Benzema continues to nurse a hamstring injury.

Gareth Bale will be hoping to fit to face Sevilla, but Eden Hazard and Marco Asensio remain sidelined.

Meanwhile, the Andalusian visitors will have to do without Lucas Ocampos, who is serving a suspension.

Sergio Escudero is also expected to miss out with an eye problem.

Previous Results

Having played 144 times, it is Real Madrid who stand victorious in statistics with 76 wins to their name, compared to Sevilla’s 42.

Los Blancos have also scored 310 times – 110 fewer than the Andalusians.

But what can you expect from both sides this time round? Sevilla forward Munir El Haddadi will help Lopetegui’s men in attack.

Their connective build up looks to remain the same, having seen success in combinations from Ferran Torres, Ever Banega and Bryan Gil to release Munir.

Meanwhile Real Madrid will look to keep up their winning ways as their emphasis remains on goal scoring, with Reinier Jesus among those they are targeting in the transfer window.
