Real Madrid will keep their dim hopes of chasing Barcelona in the title race alive when they host Espanyol in the Spanish La Liga. The Los Blancos are second with 53 points from 24 games, 9 shy off league leaders Barcelona. Their inconsistency in domestic football has hurt them and they will be under pressure as they look for a first win in three games. Carlo Ancelotti knows the league race is on till it is mathematically possible and we have seen dramatic twists and turn in the past, which will give them confidence. Espanyol are 13th in the points table and will be eager to break into the top half. With just two wins in their last five games, Espanyol need a strong reversal in fortunes. Real Madrid versus Espanyol will be telecasted on the Sports18 network and streamed on the Voot app from 6:30 pm IST.
