Real Madrid face Alaves before crucial Arsenal clash

Real Madrid will play a La Liga match against Deportivo Alaves at the Medizorrotza Stadium — a game that serves as preparation before facing Arsenal in the Champions League.

This matchday 31 La Liga fixture will take place on Sunday (13/4) at 21:15 WIB — a crucial moment for Los Blancos to chase Barcelona in the standings.

Currently, Real Madrid sits in second place with a 7-point gap from Barcelona who have already played this week — a victory would reduce the distance with their main rivals.

A positive result against Alaves would also provide additional motivation before Real Madrid hosts Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-final second leg at Santiago Bernabeu early Thursday morning.
