Real Madrid squad:

Defenders: Carvajal, Ramos, Militao, Marcelo, Varane, Mendy and Javi Hernandez
Midfielders: Modric, Isco, Kroos, James, and Fede Valverde.
Attackers: Bale, Hazard, Benzema, Rodrygo, Vinicius jr, Asensio, Mariano, and Brahim Diaz
Team news:
Isco is back into the squad from a hamstring injury. Also, Casemiro is out due to the yellow he received against Real Sociedad and he is suspended for one game. Sergio Ramos was injured in the second half against Real Sociedad and was substituted in the 60th minute after he scored a goal from the penalty spot to give Real Madrid the lead.
Real Madrid injury list includes 3 key players. Lucas Vasquez is injured for a long time now. Real Madrid's second main striker after Karim Benzema Luka Jovic is also sitting at his home. Nacho Fernandez is also out of the squad due to injury.
Predicted lineup:
It is very hard to predict Real Madrid's lineup because they have a huge squad and Zidane is a type of coach who can make his mind anytime. He has his own perspective of whom to play whom not to. But still strong chances are that they will retain the same defensive line except for Marcelo. Mendy will be included in the side because Marcelo was unable to pull a performance that could earn him a place in the starting eleven. Two years back he was one of the best Real Madrid players but after the departure of Cristiano, he has just lost his shape.
Zidane knows that it will be a must-win game for him if they want to win the title. As we all know that Real's title destiny is in their own hands if they will all of their games they will win the title. So, Zidane will not take any serious risks. In midfield, Casemiro won't be available due to his suspension so we can see Modric back into the side. Hazard is also very likely to start alongside Benzema as they are playing beautiful football together. It won't be a surprise if we see Vinicius starting again today.
Final prediction: Courtois, Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Mendy, Kroos, Valeverde, Modric, Hazard, Benzema, Vinicius.
