Real Madrid will be aiming to post a fifth straight victory in all competitions when they welcome a struggling Granada side to Bernabeu in Spain's top flight on Saturday evening.
Los Blancos are currently top of the La Liga table, level on points with second-placed Girona, while Granada sit down in 19th position, having only collected nine points from their opening 14 games of 2023-24.
Los Blancos have also been victorious in their last two in the league, beating Valencia 5-1 and Cadiz 3-0, with the results allowing them to regain first position in the table from Girona, who were held to a 1-1 draw by Athletic Bilbao in their last match.
Real Madrid are level on points (35) with Girona but sit at the summit on the head-to-head record, having beaten the Catalan outfit 3-0 when the two teams locked horns earlier this season, while Ancelotti's team are four clear of both third-placed Atletico Madrid and fourth-placed Barcelona.
Los Blancos have not exactly been at their free-flowing best throughout the season, but they are the second-highest goalscorers in the division with 31 goals, while the leaders have comfortably the best defensive record, conceding just nine times, which is a brilliant record considering their injury problems.
