Real Madrid made their intentions clear ahead of the Champions League fixture with RB Leipzig and the Clásico against Barcelona with a brace from superstar Kylian Mbappé and a comfortable home victory.

The Royal Club secured their seventh win in nine league matches of the season with a 4:1 victory over Seville in Spanish La Liga. After Arda Güler opened the scoring in the 30th minute, Mbappé doubled the lead before halftime with his goal in the 37th minute, effectively deciding the match.

Following the restart, Mbappé was fouled in the penalty area after a pass from former Leipzig player Yan Diomande. The French forward converted the resulting penalty with a Panenka chip down the middle in the 63rd minute. Manu Bueno pulled one back for Seville in the 80th minute, but the impressive Diomande immediately restored the three-goal advantage with the final goal in the 82nd minute.

Real Madrid remain six points behind league leaders Barcelona in the standings. On Wednesday at 9:00 PM CET, manager José Mourinho's side will host RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League.
