#4 Real Madrid still in search of an elusive clean sheet

Leganes v Real Madrid - La Liga
Real Madrid last kept a league clean sheet in December

In the last fortnight, Madrid's attack has been admired with the attacking unit scoring three against Paris Saint-Germain and five against Real Betis. It was the case against Leganes as well where Los Meringues notched up three more goals.

But the defence at the same time has struggled for consistency. Against Leganes, Real Madrid had their regular backline (barring Marcelo) but at times, the defence still looked shaky. They also conceded a soft goal with indecisiveness in the box leading to the hosts' goal. Madrid had also conceded three against Real Betis at the weekend.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid's last clean sheet in all competitions came against Leganes in the first leg of the Copa Del Rey where they won 1-0. Their last league clean sheet came way back in December when they romped to a 5-0 win. Zidane's men have shipped in 27 goals in La Liga this season which is the fifth-best record in the country.
