Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk.

Real Madrid will be looking to record their third straight Champions League victory when they travel to Ukraine to face Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday night.

Los Blancos have won their last two games in the competition to rise into second spot in Group B, one point behind leaders Borussia Monchengladbach and three points clear of third-placed Shakhtar.

Zinedine Zidane's side would secure their spot in the round of 16 with a victory on Tuesday, but they will enter the match off the back of a shock 2-1 home defeat by Alaves in La Liga.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Shakhtar, who won at the Bernabeu in the reverse game.


Eden Hazard

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: December 1 (vs. Shakhtar Donetsk)

Eden Hazard, who has struggled with a number of injuries during his time with Madrid, limped off the field against Alaves on Saturday after picking up a muscular issue and is now a major doubt for Tuesday's game.


Sergio Ramos

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

Sergio Ramos will again miss out for Madrid on Tuesday due to the hamstring problem that he picked up during Spain's recent UEFA Nations League clash with Germany.


Federico Valverde

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

Los Blancos will be without the services of Federico Valverde for at least the next two weeks after the midfielder picked up a small shin fracture during the defeat to Valencia before the international break.


Karim Benzema

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Groin
Possible return date: December 1 (vs. Shakhtar Donetsk)

Karim Benzema again missed out against Alaves with the groin issue that he picked up during the 4-1 defeat to Valencia before the international break, but he could return in the Champions League.


Luka Jovic

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

Luka Jovic will again be unavailable for selection on Tuesday, having tested positive for coronavirus after returning from international duty with Serbia.


Alvaro Odriozola

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: December 1 (vs. Shakhtar Donetsk)

Alvaro Odriozola had been tipped to make his return from a calf injury against Villarreal or Inter, but the defender was not involved, before again missing out on the squad against Alaves. The Spaniard has actually not featured for Zidane's side since the end of September, and he will remain a doubt for this game.


Dani Carvajal

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

Madrid will be without the services of Dani Carvajal on Tuesday due to a thigh problem, and the right-back is expected to spend at least the next two weeks on the sidelines.

Madrid do not have any suspension issues for the Champions League clash.
