Real Madrid: Almost a full squad of players for the manager to choose from, although he has been prone to rotating his players recently. Only Nacho will sit out as he continues his recovery.
Bilbao: Bilbao can go one better than Madrid as they currently have a clean bill of health.
Zinedine Zidane: The most important thing for us is to try to get back to second place, which is our goal. We climbed back up to third, tomorrow we’re playing at home and we want to get closer to second place and we’ll try to put in a good performance. They’re a team that don’t not deserve to be where they are in the table. Maybe more was expected this year because they’re a very good team that competes very well. They’re a complete team that will come here to try to pick up points. We have to be ready, especially when it comes to their strengths.
Jose Angel Ziganda: We already know what it's to play in Bernabeu, we've been having a hard time scoring there for a lot of years now. We have to go with enthusiasm. We can hold on to things even though this year we have failed more than we should, we are going to trust that we will have a end of season in which we will see the light at the end of the tunnel we have lived through.
