Team news & squads

Rayo Vallecano team news

Pep Chavarria and Diego Mendez would need late fitness checks ahead of kick-off, with Rayo boss Inigo Perez likely to persist with the same line-up from the Mallorca loss.

Meanwhile, the likes of Raul de Tomas, Oscar Trejo and Unai Lopez will be pushing for starts.

Rayo Vallecano possible XI: Dimitrievski; Balliu, Mumin, Lejeune, Espino; Valentin, Ciss; Palazon, Perez, Garcia; Camello

Real Madrid team news

The likes of Antonio Rudiger, Jude Bellingham, David Alaba, Eder Militao and Thibaut Courtois are sidelined through injuries, while Ferland Mendy is suspended on account of accumulation of yellow cards.

With Brahim Diaz emerging as a doubt due to a knock he picked up in the Leipzig game, Joselu could get a start in a deeper role in attack.

Luka Modric may be used as an option from the bench as Toni Kroos, Federico Valverde and Eduardo Camavinga are set to feature in the middle, with Aurelien Tchouameni stationed at the back.

It's a Madrid derby as Real Madrid travel to the Estadio de Vallecas to face a struggling Rayo Vallecano side. Winless in five consecutive matches, Rayo will need quite a bit of help if they're to get points off of the league leaders even with Real Madrid still struggling with injuries.

Storylines

Rayo Vallecano: Scoring less than a goal per game, Rayo will need to be adventurous to take advantage of Real Madrid's ailing defense. While sitting back is usually the preferred option to not concede multiple goals to Los Blancos but when Rayo will likely concede no matter what, leaning into long shots from Isi Palazon could test the defense to make something happen in this derby.

Real Madrid: Antonio Rudiger may be recovering for Real Madrid but already leading La Liga by five points, this isn't a game worth risking him in with an important return leg against RB Leipzig coming in Champions League play. Jude Bellingham also won't be in the squad for this match but between Vinicius Junior, Joselu, and Rodrygo, there is plenty in attack to see off a Rayo side that has struggled defensively this season.
