SD Huesca vs Real Madrid
La Liga 2018-19
Venue: Estadio El Alcoraz, Aragon
Date: Sunday, December 9, 2018
Kick-off: 3.15pm GMT
Real Madrid make the trip to northern Spain this weekend to face La Liga first-timers Huesca in front of 7,000 fans at their recently expanded stadium.
With newly crowned Ballon d'Or winner Luka Modric expected to start, this should be a straightforward win over the league's bottom side.
A win on the first day of the season has not been improved upon to leave Huesca seven points from safety, a deficit unlikely to be cut this weekend.
