Real Madrid coach Solari insists no pressure over keeper choices

Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari says he's never felt under pressure over his goalkeeper choices.

Real Madrid will have Thibaut Courtois and Keylor Navas fighting for a place in the starting XI again this weekend as the Belgian has recovered from his injury.

Solari refused to give anything away before welcoming Sevilla to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

"It is lucky that Real Madrid have the two best goalkeepers in the world," he said when asked which of the pair would start on Saturday.

Sevilla with provide a stern test for Los Blancos, and Solari is demanding a performance.

"Intensity is non-negotiable," he said.

"Passion and motivation are necessary and non-negotiable to continue challenging with the teams above us in the table."
