Real Madrid midfielder Esteban Granero is looking to the Primera Liga game against Barcelona on November 29 as a turning point in the league race this season.

"It's a good test for us and an opportunity to demonstrate what we are aspiring to in the Primera Liga. That game is worth six points because Barca is a direct rival but more than that, we must seize the match as a turning point," Granero told AS.

The 22-year-old also called on his team to replicate their first half performance in their UEFA Champions League tie against Milan at the San Siro.

"We have found the style of play we want, now we just need to by consistent with it. It involves having the ball and being offensive. Take the first half at the San Siro, the day we play like that for 90 minutes our confidence will be at it's maximum," he declared.

Prior to the showdown with Barcelona, Real face two home games, against Racing Santander in the Primera Liga on Saturday and FC Zurich in the Champions League on November 25.
