Intro:

Real Madrid prepare for Tuesday's La Liga clash with Elche.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach (asked if he's going to let Ronaldo rest)

"I don't think Cristiano Ronaldo needs to rest. He is in a spell of good form and he's in great physical and mental condition. Real Madrid need him and we need him at his best."

SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach

"James Rodríguez is a very durable player who doesn't have a problem with running for a long time. It is difficult for such a talented player to also be so resilient. A talented player is normally fast but gets tired if he runs so much. That is not James."

SOUNDBITE (English): Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach

"We can have problems with anything at the moment. Tomorrow is another exam for us because we didn't start so well this season. We were good for the last two games and we want to have continuity in our results and our playing."
