Xabi Alonso set to be sacked if Real Madrid don’t beat Alavés -report

Real Madrid will sack coach Xabi Alonso if Los Blancos can’t get the three points on their visit to Vitoria to face Alavés this upcoming Sunday, according to a report from LaSexta’s José Luís Sánchez.
Sánchez have sources inside Real Madrid’s board, so it’s fair and reasonable to say that his report is probably true. Los Blancos have three manageable games ahead of them —Alavés, Talavera in the Copa del Rey and then Sevilla at home—, so Alonso’s team could gain some momentum if they manage to earn the three points this Sunday.
Still, beating Alavés with Asencio and Rüdiger as the only available defenders will not be an easy task. Dean Huijsen is also working to make his return from injury and appears to be questionable heading into that game.
