Real Madrid take on Cordoba for the first time in
44 years hoping to stretch their lead at the top of
La Liga.
Madrid have enjoyed a free midweek having been
dumped out of the Copa del Rey by Atletico
Madrid in the round of 16 and added teenage
sensation Martin Odegaard to their star-laden
squad.
However, the 16-year-old Norwegian is expected
to only feature for the club's reserve side, Real
Madrid Castilla, for the rest of the season under
the orders of French legend Zinedine Zidane.
Pepe's continued absence through injury means
another Frenchman Rafael Varane will maintain
his place alongside Sergio Ramos in defence as
Carlo Ancelotti is expected to name the same
side that beat Getafe 3-0 last weekend.
Cordoba started the new year firmly rooted in the
relegation zone following a 5-0 drubbing at the
hands of Barcelona after which boss Miroslav
Djukic slammed his players' lack of fight.
However, the Serbian has got the reaction he
wanted with a run of seven points from nine
lifting them up to 14th.
"It is not a different week, we just need to work
hard and do everything we can to get something
positive from the game," Algerian forward Nabil
Ghilas said on Thursday.
"I hope that Real Madrid will attack a lot and we
can try to take advantage on the counter-attack.
"The fans are always with us no matter who the
opponent is. I love the fans, what ever the result
they support us. Prediction 1-5
