Real Madrid will be raring to go when they host Galatasaray in the Champions League on Wednesday, knowing that victory will push them closer to qualification from Group A.

And one player who will be a bit more eager than others to impress will be Eden Hazard. After a disappointing start with Real, the former Chelsea man is beginning to come into his own.

He was earlier rumoured to be overweight but those days seem to be well in the past. Manager Zinedine Zidane is impressed with what he sees and expects Hazard to eventually find his best form.

Hazard's best show so far was against Real Betis last weekend, when Real struggled but he seemed back to his best.

The Belgian took part in training in Madrid on Tuesday along with fellow galacticos. However, one player who continues to be an enigma is Gareth Bale.

Zidane said Bale is unavailable for the match against Galatasaray "due to injury" even though he was called up to Wales' squad for their upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers.
