Eibar and Real Madrid play each other this Saturday, the 9th of November at the Ipurua stadium, a game corresponding to the 13th matchday and which be a big challenge for Zidane's team.

Real Madrid just started scoring in the Champions League against Galatasaray just when they needed it most, so continuing that positive streak is the main objective of the Spanish capital.

Due to the important visit from Real Madrid, the Eibar player, Sergi Enrich wanted to offer some statements to the newspaper 'AS', in which he did not hesitate to point to Karim Benzema as the best forward in the world.

"Benzema, as well as what he scores, how he works... brings a lot to Madrid and he is the best striker in the world. And I don't think it's just now. In previous years he has been hidden by Ronaldo and now he has helped the team a lot over the past two years," Sergi Enrich commented.

Regarding his personal situation, he declared: "I arrived with a lot of enthusiasm, I lost four kilos... and in the first game of preseason I injured my knee. I got scared. Now I've been feeling good for four weeks".

On the difficulty of beating the rival, he explained: "I think that every year it is more difficult to beat the rest of the teams. The big teams are losing more and more points and that means that the rest of us are doing things well. Real Madrid is a great team, they are able to play during the week League, Cup and Champions League".

But finally the Eibar player gave the key to be able to overcome the whole of Madrid before his fans: "Playing a match without fear, being ourselves and recognising us".
