The head coach of Real Madrid Zinedine Zidane understands the importance that today's postponed La Liga match in Spain can have.
Today at 20:00 Lithuanian time at the "Mestalla" stadium, Valencia hosts the "whites".
This match from December was postponed because Real had to compete in the FIFA Club World Cup.
If Real wins, they will increase their lead over Barcelona to 4 points, and the royal club will also have a game in hand.
"We know how important the match in Valencia is in terms of the tournament table. We will play against a team that has significantly improved their game since the start of the season and is now achieving positive results," said the strategist.
"As always, I will repeat that this league is very difficult. Yes, we are in a decent position now, but that doesn't mean anything and we must continue to work hard on the field.
Our goal in Valencia is to win and increase our advantage over the opponents. It won't be easy, but we understand the importance of these matches," Z. Zidane concluded.
