Real Madrid get their Champions League campaign underway on Wednesday night when they take on Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes.
The fixture represents a mouthwatering start for everyone involved, especially boss Zinedine Zidane given his success with France during his playing career.
Los Blancos head into the game having put together a four-match unbeaten streak in La Liga, while also desiring to improve on their last-16 exit to Ajax during the last campaign.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the match at the home of the Ligue 1 champions.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: September 18 (vs. PSG)
Modric picked up a thigh problem while on international duty with Croatia, and it was enough to keep the midfielder out of Saturday's La Liga fixture. Zidane will want to have the veteran at his disposal on Wednesday, although he is unlikely to take any risks on the player given the weekend's trip to Sevilla.
