Rayo Vallecano team news

Apart from the injured duo of Pelayo Fernandez and Raul de Tomas, Rayo head coach Inigo Perez has a full-strength squad to pick from.

Randy Nteka should keep his place at the tip, joined in attack by Alvaro Garcia, Isi Palazon and Jorge de Frutos.

Pathe Ciss and Oscar Valentin will continue as the midfield pivot.

Real Madrid team news

Real boss Carlo Ancelotti is unlikely to risk Kylian Mbappe after the Frenchmen picked up a thigh problem in the midweek Champions League game against Atalanta, but Jude Bellingham is expected to be fit for the tie.

Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo were back from their respective issues last time out and remain in contention, with Dani Ceballos in midfield and Aurelien Tchouameni set to continue at the back.

Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga, Eder Militao, Dani Carvajal and David Alaba are all ruled out through injury.
