Real Madrid’s excellent form in recent weeks has coincided with a red-hot scoring streak for Kylian Mbappe.
The French striker has been scoring crucial goals game after game, helping put his team in a great position ahead of the November international break.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Mbappe has scored in seven consecutive matches for Madrid, continuing his extraordinary form in the 3-0 victory over Valencia.
The Frenchman scored Madrid’s third goal against Valencia, latching onto an excellent pass from Arda Guler before rounding the goalkeeper and finishing confidently.
The strike extended his scoring streak to seven consecutive appearances, leaving him just one match away from equalling his personal best at Real Madrid.
Mbappe previously scored in eight successive matches between September and October 2025, a record he now has within sight.

The 27-year-old has been in sensational form this season, scoring 17 goals in just 16 appearances across all competitions.
Thirteen have come in 12 La Liga matches, with Mbappe also scoring four in the Champions League. He sits second only to Raphinha in the Pichichi race.
Mbappe has emerged as a key player for Mourinho and is one of the few who rarely get a rest.
He has been instrumental in Real Madrid’s turnaround, and the team will hope his goalscoring streak continues after the break.
On the one hand, Mbappe’s growing goalscoring numbers are good to see. On the other, they also highlight Madrid’s overdependence on him for goals.

Madrid’s attack has thrived in recent matches, with the likes of Diomande and Guler becoming increasingly influential.
However, in terms of goalscoring, none of the other attackers have been able to offer Mbappe enough support.
The problem for Madrid is that this means Mourinho cannot risk leaving Mbappe out of the starting XI.
As long as he continues to deliver with such astonishing consistency, Madrid have no concerns. It remains to be seen whether Mbappe can pick up where he left off when club football resumes.
