Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane says his squad must play well in their upcoming La Liga match against Granada, despite playing every 3 days. 

On Friday, Los Blancos held their last training session before meeting Granada in their first La Liga match of 2017 after beating Sevilla 3-0 in Copa del Rey on Wednesday.

They are now full of confidence in La Liga and seek to match Barcelona's record of 39 unbeaten matches in all competitions.

Real's star strikers Ronaldo and Benzema are set to return to the squad for the Saturday match. Granada are currently struggling at the bottom end of the standings with just 1 win all season.

Defenders Pepe and Sergio Ramos along with midfielders Lucas Vazquez and Mateo Kovacic will still be missing on Saturday in addition to long-term injury victim Gareth Bale.
