Team News: Real Madrid at full strength for title decider at Deportivo

Real at full strength for title decider

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidan has made five changes to his starting XI for this afternoon's must-win La Liga clash at Deportivo La Coruna.

With a full-strength lineup at his disposal, the Los Blancos boss has drafted in Keylor Navas between the sticks and Dani Carvajal and Pepe in defence, with Kiko Casilla, Danilo and Raphael Varane dropping to the bench.

In midfield, Luka Modric returns alongside Toni Kroos, Casemiro and Gareth Bale.

Hosts Deportivo have also made several changes for the match, bringing in Stipe Pletikosa in goal and Manuel Pablo and Fernando Navarro in defence.

Real must win the match and hope that Barcelona slip up at Granada in order to clinch the La Liga title on the final day of the season.

Deportivo La Coruna: Pletikosa; Pablo, Arribas, Sidnei, Navarro; Cartabia, Mosquera, Bergantinos, Fajr; Lucas, Alberto Subs: Manu, Cani, Riera, Jona, Borges, Jonas, Rober

Real Madrid: Navas; Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo; Kroos, Casemiro, Modric; Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo Subs: Casilla, Varane, James, Kovacic, Jese, Isco, Danilo
