Real Madrid gets back into action against FC Sevilla as they hope to continue ridding themselves of a mediocre start to the season.
However, the major question will not be whether the team can continue to win, but the state of the locker room. After all, no one will forget that Ronaldo made a scandal of his "Sad" prior to the break when he refused to celebrate two goals in the team's first win and then let the media know why.
Is Ronaldo still sad or was the break and two wins with Portugal what the Doctor prescribed?
Back to soccer though as this is a huge match for Madrid. They have won just once in three games and find themselves in 9th place. Sevilla has won once and has two draws which puts them at five points.
Madrid should have the edge here, but Sevilla does have the likes of Ivan Rakitic and Alvaro Negredo. Negredo came through the ranks of Real Madrid but never made the big club. He will be the most dangerous threat offensively for Sevilla and will give Madrid defenders the most trouble.
Prediction: Madrid is only starting a lengthy winning streak. 2-0 Real Madrid and I predict Ronaldo will have a great deal to do with both goals. Also expect Gonzalo Higuain to score one.
The match starts at 4 PM ET.
