Team News: Three changes for Real Madrid

Three changes for Real Madrid

Real Madrid have made three changes to the side that beat Getafe last weekend for their La Liga match against Villarreal.

Sergio Ramos and Marcelo return at the back, while Casemiro, who was an unused substitute last weekend, comes in for Toni Kroos, who starts on the bench this evening.

Meanwhile, there are two changes for the hosts following their 2-1 win over Rayo Vallecano last time out.

Mateo Musacchio and Manuel Trigueros, who both came off the bench in last week's come-from-behind win, are brought into the starting lineup, while Adrian Marin and Tomas Pina drop to the bench.

Villarreal: Areola; Musacchio, Ruiz, Costa, Bailly; Dos Santos, Trigueros, Suarez, Bruno; Soldado, Bakambu Subs: Barbosa, Rukavina, Marin, Pina, Castillejo, Nahuel, Samu

Real Madrid: Navas; Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo, Danilo; Rodriguez, Casemiro, Modric; Ronaldo, Benzema, Bale Subs: Casilla, Nacho, Kroos, Kovacic, Lucas, Isco, Jese
