Real Madrid will endeavour to end a run of two successive defeats when they return to the Santiago Bernabeu to host Rayo Vallecano in Wednesday's La Liga contest.
On the back of their 4-0 Champions League humbling at Manchester City, Los Blancos were defeated 1-0 by Valencia on Sunday evening courtesy of Diego Lopez's first-half strike.
That result keeps Carlo Ancelotti's men third in the table behind city rivals Atletico Madrid, but the contest at Mestalla was marred by another racism storm involving Vinicius Junior.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up the team's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with 11th-placed Vallecano, who suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Espanyol last time out.
Status: Out
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: Unknown
Similarly, Real Madrid announced that striker Mariano Diaz would sit out the trip to Mestalla with a thigh issue, and he has not been named in the squad for Wednesday's game either.
REAL MADRID'S SUSPENSION LIST
Vinicius Junior
Return date: June 4 (vs. Athletic Bilbao)
During the dying embers of Sunday's defeat to Valencia, Vinicius Junior alleged that he was subjected to racist chants from the Mestalla crowd, and he raised his arm into the face of Hugo Duro during a large-scale melee. Following a VAR review, the Brazilian was given a straight red card, and he will serve a two-game ban as a result.
