Real Madrid will be bidding to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome Valencia to Bernabeu on Saturday night.
Carlo Ancelotti's side were held to a goalless draw by Rayo Vallecano in the league last weekend, which contributed to them dropping down to second spot in the table, two points behind leaders Girona.
Los Blancos will enter this match off the back of a victory, though, beating Braga 3-0 in the Champions League on Wednesday to secure their spot in the last-16 stage of the competition.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Valencia, who are currently eighth in Spain's top flight.
