Everything you need to know ahead of Los Blancos' La Liga encounter in Pamplona on Saturday

Real Madrid return to action in the Primera Division on Saturday after their game against Celta Vigo last weekend was suspended after storms damaged the Balaidos stadium.
Zinedine Zidane's side still lead La Liga by a point from fierce rivals Barcelona despite having played two fewer fixtures than the Catalans (one because of their participation in the Club World Cup in December and the other due to last weekend's postponed fixture).By the time they kick off in Pamplona on Saturday evening, Los Blancos will not have played a competitive fixture in two whole weeks, while they could find themselves provisionally behind Barca in the table if the Catalans win at Alaves.
