Real Madrid will play seven matches, including the Clásico and the Champions League quarter-finals.
It is crunch time in the football season for Real Madrid, as the Whites aim to clinch the league title and the Champions League. The team will face a demanding month of April, with seven matches in both competitions, including the Clásico against Barcelona and the Champions League quarter-final tie against Liverpool over two legs.
The second and third weeks of the month will be especially tough for Madrid, with the daunting task of three demanding fixtures in the space of nine days. If the Whites are to progress past the English side to the semi-finals, they will also have to play on 27/28 April against the winners of Porto-Chelsea. Meanwhile, the Clásico on 10 April is also a season-defining clash, with Barcelona also fighting to be crowned league champions.
Final straight in LaLiga
There are currently 10 games left in LaLiga and the team will contest five of those matches in April. In addition to Barcelona, Madrid must take on Éibar, Cádiz, Betis and Getafe, all of them decisive games. Last season, Zidane’s side proved what they are capable of by winning ten consecutive matches in the final stretch of the season. The path to retaining the title looks to be the identical this year.
