• Alcoyano have lost their last three league games To Nil
• Alcoyano have managed only seven home league goals all season

Rampant Real expected to cruise into last 16

Nineteen time Spanish Cup winners Real Madrid have been exceptional this season. Only one defeat in their last sixteen games sees them sit six points clear in La Liga and comfortably through to the last 16 of the Champions league. Boss Carlo Ancelotti is likely to ring the changes on Wednesday evening, despite this Real are strongly fancied to brush aside third division Alcoyano.

Real Madrid have won ten of their last twelve games on the road in all competitions and as such boast the best away record in La Liga. Their defence has been particularly stingy of late, having conceded only three goals in their last nine games keeping six clean sheets in the process.

Alcoyano’s tame front line unlikely to trouble La Liga leaders

Having mustered only seven home league goals all season Alcoyano currently sit in the bottom half of Spanish footballs third tier. As such they are unlikely to pose much of a threat to Real Madrid in this tie. Alcoyano’s struggles have been highlighted more recently as they have lost their last three league matches without scoring a single goal.

At more appealing odds than the outright market, a bet on Real Madrid Win To Nil is recommended.

Mariano Diaz hoping to impress in rare outing

The form of both Real Madrid and their talisman striker Karim Benzema mean chances for those waiting in the wings to fill the number 9 position have been few and far between. Mariano Diaz has been restricted to just a handful of appearances this season but can expect to be afforded a rare start on Wednesday evening, with Benzema likely to be rested.

Diaz, a man with undoubted quality given his exploits at Lyon can expect a busy night in front of goal and a strong case can be made for him opening his account for the season.
