Real Madrid will be looking to recover from back-to-back defeats when they resume their 2020-21 La Liga campaign away to Alaves on Saturday night.

Los Blancos have lost their last two games in all competitions, suffering a 2-1 defeat to Athletic Bilbao in the semi-finals of the Spanish Super Cup on January 14 before going down 2-1 to third-tier side Alcoyano in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday night.

Zinedine Zidane's side are on an eight-game unbeaten run in La Liga, though, and currently sit second in the table, four points behind leaders Atletico Madrid.

Here, Sports Mole runs through all of Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Alaves, who are currently 17th in Spain's top flight.
