Real Madrid are on their best winning run for 18 months and the side are full of confidence having cemented their place at the top of the table.
Despite missing a number of players due to the coronavirus outbreak in the squad, Los Blancos are still likely to be far too strong for a Cadiz side who have been struggling badly for months.
