Real Madrid is having a great start to the season but there’s still a long way to go for Zidane and his men. Here’s a look at the teams toughest game to come in 2019.

Real Madrid sits in the second spot in the La Liga table after 12 games played, a matchday behind the rest of the league due to the postponing of the Clasico. With a game in hand and only goal difference separating Madrid from the Catalan giants, Zidane’s men are sitting pretty thus far.

La Liga isn’t a league that is won easily despite the shots for lack of parity by fans, primarily from the Premier League. La Liga requires a strong effort week in and week out, something that Madrid has shown little of over the past decade as the title has eluded them.

Now, Madrid seems to have steered the ship in the right direction but now isn’t the time to celebrate. With the international break in full effect and eight games left in 2019, we take a look at the teams five toughest matches ahead as 2019 comes to a close.
