Real Madrid have a chance to create some much-needed positive headlines this evening when they visit Sevilla.
It has been an absolutely miserable fortnight for the 15-time European champions, who appear to have imploded as players fight among themselves, with star striker Kylian Mbappé exchanging public barbs with coach Alvaro Arbeloa and president Florentino Pérez calling for early elections.
They returned to winning ways on Thursday night with a routine win over Oviedo but the match was set up against a hostile Santiago Bernabéu.
Therefore, Real Madrid’s players may enjoy the trip south to Seville to face a team that is yet to emerge from the relegation battle.
Sevilla ranks 12th, but only four points behind the bottom three With two matches remaining.
