Real Madrid one of the best in the world, says Mendilibar

Real Madrid one of the best in the world, says Mendilibar

Latest Heynckes would never go to Schalke, says Hoeness Previous

The Osasuna trainer is full of respect for the Santiago Bernabeu side ahead of this weekend's game, and feels his side will have to be at their best in order to get a result

Bet: Returns: Osasuna $26.00 Draw $35.00 Sevilla $28.80 Betfair
Jose Luis Mendilibar has acknowledged that Osasuna will be going up against one of the best sides in the world when they face Real Madrid on Saturday in La Liga.

Jose Mourinho's men have been struggling domestically this season and sit third in the table at the moment, 16 behind arch-rivals Barcelona, but the 51-year-old says they are still a force to be reckoned with.

"Real Madrid are still one of the best teams in the world. They are just returning to their best form again and it will be very difficult to get a good result," he said at a press conference.

"They are great in every area and do not seem to have any weaknesses. They are impressive tactically, physically and technically.

"They showed against Sociedad that they are mentally tough as well, and we will have to be at our best to get something from this game."

Saturday's encounter is due to kick off at 20:00CET.
