Real Madrid has been embroiled in a more or less constant war of words, both in the media and in the courtroom, with La Liga over the past decade. However, they have new ammunition for their frustrations.
Their latest problem is the timing of their games. Los Blancos have played away from home 12 times in domestic football this season, and only one of those was before 9pm CEST. That was against Leganes in Butarque, a trip for which they did not have to leave the Spanish capital.
Real Madrid feel they have been unfairly punished by the fixture list due to the timing of the matches, Diario AS reports. It is noted that sometimes due to the post-match recovery routine and the need to eat, they do not fall asleep until 4am.
Given their injury crisis this season, it is no surprise that they are looking at all areas to improve their rest and recovery. No doubt the timing of their matches doesn't help matters, but then again others would probably point to the fact that Los Blancos want to maximize their financial gains from television money.
