Fifteen-time Champions League winners Real Madrid seek to bounce back from a shock defeat in their last European affair when they reunite with 2023-24 final foes Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.

Carlo Ancelotti's troops lost in the competition for the first time since May 2023 on matchday two, as they were stunned 1-0 by Ligue 1 outfit Lille thanks to a Jonathan David effort.

However, Los Blancos warmed up for Tuesday's Wembley reunion in ideal fashion with a 2-1 La Liga beating of Celta Vigo, one that temporarily drew them level with leaders Barcelona in the top-flight table on 24 points.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Dortmund, who obliterated Celtic 7-1 last time out in the Champions League.

Aurelien Tchouameni

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Discomfort
Possible return date: October 22 (vs. Dortmund)

Aurelien Tchouameni had to leave Monday's training session early due to discomfort, but he has made the squad and may be able to play some part in the match.

Dani Carvajal

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Influential right-back Dani Carvajal should not be seen again this season, as the Spaniard is now on the mend from a knee operation to address the severe injury that he picked up earlier this month.

David Alaba

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

David Alaba has now been sidelined for 10 months with a severe ACL problem, and the experienced Austrian defender is still some way off a return, which may not occur before the end of the year.

Brahim Diaz

Status: Out
Type of injury: Abductor
Possible return date: Unknown

Brahim Diaz sustained a moderately severe abductor problem against Real Sociedad in September, and even though the 25-year-old is now training with the group again, he is not quite ready for a competitive comeback.

REAL MADRID'S SUSPENSION LIST

Real Madrid have no players suspended for this match, although Luka Modric - who became Los Blancos' oldest-ever player at the weekend - is one yellow card away from a European ban.
