Reigning champions Real Madrid will be aiming to record their first victory of the 2024-25 La Liga campaign when they welcome Real Valladolid to Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon.
Los Blancos beat Atalanta BC 2-0 in the UEFA Super Cup on August 7, but they were held to a 1-1 draw by Mallorca in their opening league game of the new campaign last weekend.
Rodrygo sent the capital giants ahead in the 13th minute of the clash, but Vedat Muriqi levelled the scores early in the second period, and that was how it finished at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Real Valladolid, who recorded a 1-0 victory over Espanyol last time out.
