Real Madrid injury update vs. Villarreal: Could Eder Militao miss out for Los Blancos?

Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their La Liga clash with Villarreal.

Real Madrid will be aiming to return to winning ways when they continue their 2024-25 La Liga campaign at home to Villarreal on Saturday night.

Carlo Ancelotti's side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Lille in the Champions League on Wednesday, with the loss proving to be the team's first in all competitions since January.

Los Blancos were denied a win in the Madrid derby last weekend courtesy of a late leveller from Atletico Madrid, meanwhile, and they are currently second in the La Liga table, three points behind the leaders Barcelona.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Villarreal, who are currently third in Spain's top flight after an excellent start.
