After starting the first three matches, Real Madrid ended up losing the game and in the last four rounds the team drew two games, lost one and won only one at home for 1x0, casting doubt on the work of current Spanish coach Lopetegui, coach of the Spanish national team. Now Real Madrid will visit the Alaves, in search of a victory, as a new stumble can cost the coach's position.
