After the highs of that dramatic El Clasico win against Barcelona, Real Madrid need to avoid a big letdown in what could be a trciky city derby game against Rayo Vallecano.
Carlo Ancelotti's side needed a late winner to beat Rayo here last year and the visitors have only lost by the odd goal in their last three trips to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Rayo did win their home game against Real last season, and are on an eight-game unbeaten run, but they've not won here since 1996 - hence why they're 11/112.00 shots here.
Real need the win with Girona and Atletico pushing them in the title race, and they should really get three points even if they have to work for them.
This has landed six times this season when Rayo Vallecano received three cards or more - four of those times coming away from home.
There's no bigger away game than at Real Madrid, and given they've had at least two cards in all but one outing in La Liga so far then three shouldn't really be a problem here.
You can back Rayo at 4/61.67 for over 2.5 cards.
It's not exactly rocket science and Jude Bellingham is odds-on at 10/111.91 to score anytime, but the stats speak for themselves after the Englishman's incredible start at Real.
He's just a goal machine in the advanced role he plays for Ancelotti, with 13 goals already this season culminating with his two-goal match-winning display at Barca.
Bellingham has scored in 10 games so far so this has landed more times than, say, Bellingham to have 2+ shots on target in a game, which comes in as a the same price.
So we'll take him to continue his scoring form.
Oscar Valentin leads the team in terms of fouls given away, so we'll back him at 8/151.53 for another 2+ fouls to add to the tally.
Playing in central midfield Valentin will be right in the heat of battle at the Bernabeu and trying to win back possession more likely than not.
If playing in the holding role he'll also have Bellingham to deal with at times so he's in prime position to be top of the list for giving fouls away.
He's given away multiple fouls in seven of his 10 games this season so that big odds-on price is fully justified - as is backing him here.
