Team news & squads
Cádiz team news
Cadiz will certainly be missing Rominigue Kouame, Fali and Brian Ocampo this weekend through injury and will play no part here, while Luis Hernandez and Fede San Emeterio are both doubtful.
However, the return of Ivan Alejo and Ruben Sobrino from suspensions that kept them out of the last match against Getafe will serve as a major boost.
The hosts' only narrowly lost to Getafe before the break, so head coach Sergio Gonzalez may well use a similar XI here.
Cadiz possible XI: Ledesma; Carcelen, Chust, J Hernandez, Pires; Sobrino, Escalante, Alcaraz, Alejo; Machis, Roger
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Aznar, Gil, Ledesma |
| Defenders: | Nieto, Hernández, Mbaye, Meré, Pires, Zaldúa, Chust, Carcelén, Morata, Salguero, Cabrera |
| Midfielders: | Njalla, Mari, Kouamé, Navarro, Fernández, Alcaraz, San Emeterio, Escalante, Alejo |
| Forwards: | Guardiola, Ramos, Negredo, Machís, Gómez, Roger, Sobrino |
Real Madrid team news
Real Madrid have a lot of players out injured and the situation only got worse during the November international break, with Eduardo Camavinga and Vinicius Junior both picking up serious injuries with France and Brazil, respectively. Long-term absentees Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, and Arda Guler join them on the sidelines.
Aurelien Tchouameni and Kepa Arrizabalaga are also sidelined which causes further conundrum for head coach Carlo Ancelotti in midfield and in between the sticks, but Jude Bellingham is training again after missing England duty and should start from the outset here. Midfielder Daniel Ceballos is back in training after recovering from a muscular tissue, and may feature.
Real Madrid possible XI: Lunin; Carvajal, Rudiger, Alaba, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Joselu
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Kepa, Lunin |
| Defenders: | Alaba, Rudiger, Nacho, Garcia, Carvajal, Vazquez |
| Midfielders: | Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos, Modric, Bellingham, Guler |
| Forwards: | Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo, Joselu, Diaz |
