Granada hosts Real Madrid at Los Carmenes Stadium, with starkly contrasting fortunes. This match encapsulates the unpredictable nature of football, where Granada a team in the relegation zone will face off the newly crowned LaLiga Champions. After gaining promotion from Segunda División last season, the club has found life in the top flight extremely challenging. Currently, they are placed 19th in the points table, while Granada only have 21 points after playing 34 games. Granada possesses the second-worst defensive record in the league. They will have to give their best to get something positive from the match.
Los Blancos have enjoyed a season that reaffirms their status as giants of Spanish and European football. Under the guidance of manager Carlo Ancelotti, Madrid have been a force to be reckoned with, both in La Liga and in Europe. Clinching the La Liga title with five games to spare, Madrid have 87 points and they will look to get more points in the last four matches. Ancelotti’s tactical brilliance and management of his squad have been brilliant. Real Madrid’s blend of experienced campaigners and vibrant young talent has delivered a balanced and resilient team capable of overcoming various challenges. Ancelotti’s men won their Champions League semi-final tie against Bayern Munich and will face Borussia Dortmund in the final.

Player to Watch
Facundo Pellistri (Granada)
A winger by trade, Facundo is praised a lot for his agility, technique, and strategic vision to pick players by delivering line-breaking passes and defence-splitting crosses to the striker. His game is more of a natural winger as compared to modern-day inverted wingers or inside forwards. Even though he still has to develop a lot as a player, he is capable of hurting the opponent team.
Eduardo Camavinga (Real Madrid)
When he plays as a six, he likes to drop towards the centre-backs to ask for the ball close and then looks to move the ball between the lines by playing forwards. He is extremely comfortable on the ball, he stands out for the quality and accuracy of his passing, but also for how much impact he has on games. He is intelligent with his positioning, so doesn’t get caught out of position. He is a versatile player and is very consistent in his performance in every match.
