MADRID, Nov. 21 (Xinhua) -- Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster will again be in the spotlight as his side open up match day 12 in Spain at home to Recreativo Huelva on Saturday night. Although Schuster was given a tepid vote of confidence by Real Madrid's Director of Sport Pedja Mijatovic following last weekend's defeat to Valladolid, Mijatovic added that he could not say what would happen should Madrid fail to beat a Recreativo side in the relegation zone.
Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster looks on during their Spanish First Division soccer match against Valladolid at Zorrilla stadium in Valladolid November 15, 2008.
There will be a tense atmosphere in the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, while Schuster is without key players Arjen Robben, Gabriel Heinze and Ruud Van Nistelrooy. League leader Barcelona does not play until Sunday evening. PepGuardiola's side is clear favorite to take an easy win against a side who are in danger of being thrown into a relegation fight.
Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o will be looking to add to his total of 13 league goals, 11 of which he has scored in the Camp Nou stadium.
Villarreal meanwhile aims to keep the pressure on Barcelona when they play Valladolid. However, Manuel Pellegrini's team will have one eye on next week's Champions League tie against Manchester United and is without striker Joseba Llorente due to his torn hamstring.
Sevilla and Valencia also test each other's title credentials on Saturday night as they go head to head in the Sanchez Pizjuan stadium. Sevilla look to have got over a recent dip in form with the return of strikers Freddy Kanoute and Luis Fabiano, while Valencia looks to recover after a 3-2 home defeat to Sporting Gijon last Sunday.
