How Real Madrid could line up against Huesca

Real Madrid will be looking to make it four straight wins in all competitions when they travel to Huesca in La Liga on Sunday afternoon.

Los Blancos have won their last three games across three separate competitions, and will fancy their chances of overcoming a Huesca side that has won just one of their 14 La Liga matches this season to prop up the table.

Madrid are currently fifth in La Liga on 23 points, five points off division leaders Barcelona, who travel to rivals Espanyol on Saturday night.

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at how Madrid could line up at the Estadio El Alcoraz on Sunday afternoon.


Out: Nacho (knee), Casemiro (ankle), Toni Kroos (knee)

Madrid boss Santiago Solari will be without two of his first-choice midfield three this weekend, with Toni Kroos joining Casemiro on the sidelines.

Marco Asensio scored twice in Thursday's 6-1 win over Melilla in the Copa del Rey and could start, while Dani Ceballos should also return to the XI.

Lucas Vazquez was on the scoresheet in the 2-0 win over Valencia last weekend, meanwhile, and the Spaniard should keep his position in the starting XI.

The likes of Thibaut Courtois, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale played no part against Melilla during the week and all will be part of Real's XI for this match.
