Four days after defeating Valladolid at the Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid face another league clash. The Whites take on UD Las Palmas at the Gran Canaria stadium on matchday three of the competition (Thursday 9.30 pm CEST). Ancelotti’s men will be aiming to take all three points away from home and continue their climb up the table.

The Madridistas will have to be at their best to secure victory at this tough ground. In Gran Canaria the Whites have gone four games unbeaten, winning three and drawing one. This evening they will be looking to continue this run and extend their unbeaten stretch in the league, which could extend to 35 matches.

“I'm expecting a high-intensity and open game against UD Las Palmas,” said Ancelotti at the press conference ahead of the clash. The Italian has named his squad, which includes the goal scorers from the side’s win against Valladolid: Valverde, Brahim and Endrick. The Uruguayan has netted two goals at the start of the season, while the young Brazilian marked his debut with a goal at the Bernabéu, making him the youngest foreigner to score for Madrid in LaLiga.

The Canary islanders head into the clash with a record of one draw and one defeat in their first two league fixtures. But tonight they will be looking to give their fans something to cheer about with a victory against Real Madrid. Las Palmas have bolstered their squad this summer with the appointment of Luis Carrión as coach and the signings of players like Cillessen, McKenna, McBurnie and Fuster, among others.
