Real Madrid injury, suspension list and return dates vs. Man City: Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe, Eder Militao latest

Real Madrid will hope to finish the job when they travel to the Etihad Stadium for the second leg of their Champions League tie against Manchester City on Tuesday evening.

Los Blancos hold a commanding 3-0 advantage from the first leg and will aim to protect that lead - or extend it further - as they seek to confirm their place in the quarter-finals. 

Alvaro Arbeloa’s side head into the clash on the back of a 4-1 league victory over Elche at the weekend, though the Spanish giants continue to deal with a number of injury concerns ahead of the trip to Manchester.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Real Madrid’s injury and suspension news ahead of the meeting with Pep Guardiola’s side.
