Sports Mole looks at how Real Madrid could line up in Saturday's La Liga contest with Celta Vigo.

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti is expected to shuffle his pack for Saturday's La Liga contest with Celta Vigo at Bernabeu.

Los Blancos will again be without the services of Ferland Mendy due to a hamstring problem, while the reigning Spanish and European champions have two fresh injury concerns.

David Alaba was substituted at the interval of Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Chelsea in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final after complaining of a tight hamstring and also misses out.

Karim Benzema took a blow to his foot during the contest at Stamford Bridge, which led to his withdrawal in the latter stages of the contest, but he has been passed fit to feature.

Real Madrid will face Osasuna in the Copa del Rey final next month, in addition to Manchester City in the semi-finals of the Champions League, so no risks will be taken over even small injuries, with Benzema therefore likely to start on the bench.

There will be changes from the side that took to the field for the first whistle against Chelsea.

Lucas Vazquez, Antonio Rudiger and Nacho could all come into the back four, while Aurelien Tchouameni is expected to feature in central midfield.

There should also be a start in the final third of the field for Marco Asensio, with Rodrygo potentially going through the middle if Benzema is not deemed fit enough to start against the Sky Blues.

Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Courtois; Vazquez, Militao, Rudiger, Nacho; Valverde, Tchouameni, Camavinga; Asensio, Rodrygo, Vinicius
