Real Madrid will be looking to make it three La Liga victories in a row when they continue their 2020-21 campaign away to Valencia on Sunday night.
Los Blancos have won their last two in the league against Barcelona and Huesca to sit second in the table, one point behind leaders Real Sociedad with a game in hand.
Zinedine Zidane's side will also enter the match off the back of a vitally important 3-2 victory over Italian giants Inter Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Valencia, who have struggled for form in recent weeks.

Dani Carvajal is expected to spend the next three to four weeks on the sidelines recovering from a knee injury, with the Spaniard damaging his medial collateral ligament during a training session. As a result, the right-back is unlikely to make his first-team return until the early stages of December.
