Let's take a look after the international match break. There seems to be a 2-week gap for all leagues. The current condition is indeed Real Madrid is losing a lot of players due to injuries. Barcelona may not be as bad as Madrid so they are still quite convincing. But with the current conditions everything can still change, even Barcelona could have difficulties. Currently, there are only 2 teams left that have never lost in the Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid Leagues. But indeed Barcelona is more effective because of its 8 wins and is number 1 in the provisional ranking. It seems that Madrid must take advantage of the January transfer market moment so that they can continue to compete because Madrid is very busy in Lague and Europe.
To make matters worse, Real Madrid are without Vinicius and Thibaut Courtois, and they're also without Andriy Lunin due to an infection. Because the international break can also cause other players who play for their respective countries to suffer injuries, not only for Real Madrid, but for Barcelona as well. About transfers, Real Madrid will definitely make moves in the transfer window, so far there are several names that are their targets, there are Trent Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool and also Jhon Duran from Aston Villa.
