Real Madrid vs. Valencia Live Stream Free Online: La Liga Table 2015, Projected Lineups and Tactical Preview

Two of the top four clubs in La Liga will do battle today in a league match between Real Madrid and Valencia. The first-division clash scheduled for 2 p.m. ET can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on beIN Sports.

The Stage

Things didn't go according to plan in Turin on Tuesday.

A 2-1 defeat against Juventus puts Real Madrid just 90 minutes away from elimination in the Champions League. That, however, cannot be the focus. A pivotal match with Valencia on Saturday will quickly determine if Los Merengues will still challenge for La Liga crown.

"The manager asked us for more attitude and to do what we've been doing in La Liga," striker Javier Hernandez said (via Inside Spanish Football). " They [Juventus] played a great game and we need to do the same in the return leg."

"As of tomorrow [Wednesday], we have to put this behind us and think about Valencia because we're also fighting for La Liga."

And a fight it will be.

The In-Form Player

Reverting back to the 4-3-3 will allow Gareth Bale to recapture his 2014 form. Struggling this campaign, the 25-year-old still manages 13 goals and eight assists in 29 league appearances.

Projected Lineups

Real Madrid (4-3-3): Casillas; Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe, Arbeloa; Rodriguez, Kroos, Illarramendi; Ronaldo, Hernandez, Bale

Valencia (4-3-3): Alves; Gaya, Otamendi, Mustafi, Barragan; Gomes, Fuego, Parejo; Piatti, Alcacer, Feghouli
