Perennial contender Real Madrid (2-0-1, 7 points) is set to host Granada CF (1-2-0, 3 points), in week 4 action of the 2015-2016 La Liga season at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium on Saturday, September 19.
Los Blancos is coming off a historic performance by forward Cristiano Ronaldo as he scored a five to break Real's La Liga all-time scoring record, as reported by ESPN.
After not having a goal in around 500 minutes of play, the 30-year-old forward unleashed five winners in the Meringues' game against RCD Espanyol last Saturday at the Estadi Cornellà-El Prat.
With the quintuple, Ronaldo, who pushed his goal total to 229 in 203 appearances, eclipsed Madrid legend Raúl González Blanco's 228 in 550 matches.
Granada lost its last game against Villarreal CF, 1-3, at their home stadium of Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes with only midfielder Fran Rico scoring their lone goal for the game, as per SkySports.
José Ramón Sandoval's squad was not able to follow-up their win against cellar-dweller Getafe FC in the end of August as they lost for the second time in as many games at home in the young season.
Ronaldo is expected to follow-up his scoring outburst against El Graná and there seems to be no one among Sandoval's men that is up to the task of containing the Portugal captain.
Los Vikingos will be without midfielders James Rodriguez and Danilo, though, as both are still nursing separate injuries. Dani Carvajal and Isco will continue to fill-in for the two in Rafa Benitez's line-up.
The predicted result is a 4-0 rout for Real Madrid over the Nazaríes. Watch out for another big game by Ronaldo.
