Leganés-Real Madrid to be played on February 20 or 21
The Liga fixture, corresponding to week 16 of the domestic calendar, was postponed due to Real Madrid's participation in the Club World Cup.
Monday’s Champions League draw and the subsequent decision on times and dates for the European last 16 fixtures also allowed the Spanish football authorities to amend their own calendar and slot the postponed match between Leganés and Real Madrid at Butarque into place.
The game was originally scheduled for week 16 of the domestic fixture list, to be played this weekend, but was put back due to Real Madrid’s title defence at the Club World Cup in Abu Dhabi. With Real now scheduled to play their home leg against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday February 14, the match against Leganés will take place the following week, either on Tuesday 20 or Wednesday 21.
Real defeated by Valencia in resceduled game last season
The game will have to kick-off before 18:45 so as to not to clash with the European games scheduled on the same day. Last season, when Real’s rescheduled match against Valencia was played on February 22, it started at that same time, with Real losing 2-1 against Los Che in Mestalla.
