Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Spanish Liga fixture between Real Madrid and Real Valladolid. We'll bring you all the action as it happens from the Spanish capital. Kick off is at 20:30 BST.

Real Madrid get the job done and claim three points to lift themselves to third place in La Liga after three games. This was far from a vintage performance from the Spanish champions, but the introduction of Vinicius changed the game. The Brazilian provided the spark the home side needed.

FULL TIME: Real Madrid 1-0 Real Valladolid

Villa floats a freekick delivery into the Real Madrid box, but Varane is on hand to make the clearing header and that should just about do it for the home team this evening.

Benzema is withdrawn by Zidane and Mayoral comes on for the final moments.

There will be three minutes of stoppage time played at the end of the match.

There isn't really a feeling that Real Valladolid are on the brink of snatching an equaliser here, but this is the danger with a 1-0 scoreline. It only takes one chance for the away side.

Casemiro enters the book. You didn't think he was going to get through a full match without a yellow card, did you?

Roberto has been excellent this evening and has made a number of very good saves, but what a slack moment that was from the former West Ham United goalkeeper. Incredible, really.

Off the woodwork! What a let off for Roberto! He rolled the ball out to the edge of the box, Modric made the tackle and got the shot away. Roberto had given up on it, but the ball came off the base of the post!

Guardiola also comes on for the final few minutes at the Estadio Alfredo di Stefano.

It should be noted that Real Valladolid made a change some moments ago, with Villa coming on.

Bruno was shown a yellow card for a tackle on Vinicius on the edge of the box.

There is still time for Real Valladolid to grab an equaliser here and snatch a point, but this is becoming a rather open encounter and that will actually favour Real Madrid.

A wasted chance! Real Madrid had a two-on-one situation, but the pass from Benzema through to Vinicius was poor and Carnero made the tackle on the Brazilian before he could get the shot away.

Courtois stops Rubio! Once again, the Real Madrid goalkeeper is called upon to keep Real Valladolid out, this time pushing a powerful strike from Rubio over his own crossbar.

The introduction of Vinicius off the bench has given Real Madrid a different dimension in the attacking third. The Brazilian winger is run at opponents with the ball at his feet.
