REAL MADRID V SOCIEDAD RESULT - REAL MADRID EXTEND LEAD AT TOP OF LA LIGA, SEND WARNING TO PSG

Unsurprisingly Los Blancos are favourites at around 1/2, with the draw 7/2 and Sociedad at a little disrespectful 6/1.

One positive for Imanol Alguacil is the return of Illarramendi in midfield. They still have one of the biggest injury rooms in la Liga though with Barrenetxea, Januzaj, Munoz, Monreal, Rico and Fernandez unavailable.

The big absentee for Real is the midfield maestro Toni Kroos who has a hamstring complaint and Carlo Ancelotti will be holding on to the seemingly unlikely hope that he recovers to play against PSG.

It is a strong side selected by Carlo Ancelotti but you have to think he will look to take off players if they take the lead with the crucial second leg against Paris St-Germain in four days' time.
