The French manager used a mixed lineup in the first leg at Butarque where Los Blancos have been struggling badly to break the deadlock and create in the final third at all. At the end it was Marco Ssensio who made the difference and helped Real Madrid gain at least some sort of advantage ahead of this rematch at Santiago Bernabeu.
Nonetheless, it is all but a closed tie since Leganes can be dangerous in the final third, particularly if they are underestimated. The Legionaries may have lost three and drawn one in last four games in all competitions, but such results came as a consequence of a very tough schedule and we would not be surprised to see them find the net this Wednesday at Bernabeu.
Watford vs Arsenal: Prediction
The Hornets have nowhere to go in the Premier League table. They sit 10th at the moment, but will come into this in the highest of spirits after a massive 3-2 comeback win over Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend at Wembley.Javi Gracia’s troops showed a fantastic team spirit to come back from a two-goal deficit and go all the way to the FA Cup final where they will play Manchester City for the trophy in mid-May.
Watford enjoyed a strong attacking form of late. They notched seven goals in last outings. All of past six matches they played across competitions saw goals scored at both ends. Backing this option is the best way to go here when they come across attacking-minded Arsenal.
