José Mourinho's Real Madrid open their La Liga home campaign against Málaga this Sunday, with the capital club aiming to climb to the summit of the standings—if only briefly.
Madrid can overtake current leaders Barcelona with three points at the Bernabéu, as the reigning champions are not in action until Monday.
Such a result would provide an early confidence boost for Los Blancos, who—despite a perfect start to the campaign—have not hit the ground running quite like their fierce rivals.
A tense, last-gasp victory at Espanyol on matchday one was followed by discontent at the Bernabéu as Madrid found themselves level at 1–1 at the break against Real Sociedad. A stunning Kylian Mbappé hat-trick transformed the frustration into jubilation by the final whistle, however, highlighting the extraordinary attacking firepower at the new boss's disposal.
The home faithful will anticipate a straightforward victory when newly promoted Málaga, yet to pick up a point since returning to La Liga, come to town this weekend.
Here's everything you need to know about watching Madrid's second La Liga home fixture of the 2026–27 campaign.

What's Next for Real Madrid?
Madrid head away from home after consecutive matches at the Bernabéu, travelling to Seville on Friday, Sept. 4 to take on Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis at the Estadio Benito Villamarín—a ground where they have failed to win in each of their last four visits.
Following that, the Champions League gets underway with Mourinho kicking off the European campaign against his former side Inter Milan on Tuesday, Sept. 8. The most recent meeting between the two clubs came in the 2021–22 season, when Madrid claimed a 2–0 victory in a group stage contest.
Returning to La Liga action, Los Blancos will then welcome last season's Conference League finalists and local rivals Rayo Vallecano to the Bernabéu the following Sunday.
