Eibar vs Real Madrid
La Liga 2018/19
Venue: Ipurua Municipal Stadium
Kick-off: 12pm GMT
Santiago Solari takes charge of his first game as Real Madrid's permanent coach away to Eibar.
Real's season had threatened to implode as former coach Julen Lopetegui was sacked following a 5-1 Clasico rout at Barcelona, but Solari has steadied the ship with four straight wins as caretaker to earn himself an 18-month deal.
Solari's side now sit just four points behind Barca after the champions' shock 4-3 home defeat to Real Betis, and the Spanish title race looks very much on again.
