Los Blancos will aim to add to their impressive start when they welcome one of the league's new entrants to their home grounds on Saturday.

Match Preview

Real Madrid will hope to make it business as usual when they welcome Cadiz to the Bernabeu on Matchday 6 of this season's La Liga. The Merengues have mounted a strong start to potentially defend the league title at the end of the season and, as a result, should be brimming in confidence.

Following their goalless draw with Real Sociedad in the first game of the season, Zinedine Zidane's men are yet to put a foot wrong, racking up successive wins over Real Betis, Real Valladolid and Levante. While it might be early days yet, Real Madrid ranks atop the leaderboard as one among only four teams in the league to be unbeaten. They have so far accrued 10 points from four outings, scoring six goals and conceding two in the process.

With a Champions League group stage opener with Shakhtar Donetsk imminent and the El Clasico with Barcelona also on the horizon, the significance of a win in the upcoming meeting with Cadiz cannot be overemphasized.

Needless to say, the side they are up against are soaring in confidence following their remarkable win over Athletic Club and draw with Granada prior to the international break. Before the two game unbeaten run, the Yellow Submarine had recorded just a win and two losses in three outings.

Following a 14-year absence from La Liga, Cadiz are now out to survive the drop and this includes taking as many points as possible from the top clubs in the division. But if history is anything to go by, they will be required to up their game to get anything out of the upcoming test with Real Madrid as they were condemned to defeats when the two sides last met in the 2005/2006 season.

Los Blancos will be without Dani Carvajal, Alvaro Odriozola, Eden Hazard, Eder Militao and Mariano Diaz for the home test.
