Real Madrid team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Chelsea

Real Madrid will be looking to book their spot in the Champions League final when they travel to Chelsea for the first leg of their semi-final on Wednesday night.

Los Blancos played out a 1-1 draw with the Blues in the first leg of their last-four contest on April 27, meaning that the tie is delicately poised ahead of the return fixture.

Zinedine Zidane's side also boosted their La Liga title hopes on Saturday courtesy of a 2-0 home success over Osasuna, with Eder Militao and Casemiro on the scoresheet for the reigning champions.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of the contest in the English capital.
