Real Madrid will aim to continue their pursuit of the treble on Thursday evening when they face Real Sociedad in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey.

Madrid are on course for their first La Liga title in three years, with Zinedine Zidane's men holding a three-point lead over rivals and defending champions Barcelona after 22 games.

The Spanish giants also remain in contention in the Champions League, where they face Manchester City in the last 16.

Their next assignment, though, comes in the Spanish Cup  - a tournament they have not won since 2014. Ahead of facing Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu on Thursday night (kick-off 10pm UAE time), Zidane put his players through their final paces at the club's sport complex in Valdebebas.
