Sports Mole looks at how Real Madrid could line up in Wednesday's La Liga clash with Elche.

Real Madrid will be eyeing their seventh straight victory in all competitions when they continue their 2020-21 La Liga campaign away to Elche on Wednesday night.

Zinedine Zidane's side have been in excellent form since the start of the month, booking their spot in the knockout round of the Champions League, in addition to winning five straight league matches.

Los Blancos are currently second in the table, level on points with leaders Atletico Madrid, although Diego Simeone's side have two games in hand on their capital rivals.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Madrid could line up away to Elche.


Out: Rodrygo Goes (hamstring)

Madrid's squad is in excellent shape at the moment, with only Rodrygo Goes, who could miss the next three months of the season with a hamstring issue, a confirmed absentee for this game.

Luka Modric has recovered from the muscular problem that forced him to sit out against Granada last time out, and the experienced midfielder is expected to earn a starting role on Wednesday night.

Rodrygo's spot in the final third could be taken by Vinicius Junior, but there might only be two changes from the side that started against Granada as Lucas Vazquez should retain his spot in the final third.

Eden Hazard was among the substitutes last time out, having recovered from a recent injury, and the Belgium international could potentially secure some minutes in this game.

Zidane is expected to utilise his squad in the coming weeks, with the likes of Marco Asensio, Isco, Luka Jovic, Marcelo and Martin Odegaard likely to be involved.

However, the Frenchman could decide to select his strongest available XI against Elche, with Toni Kroos and Casemiro expected to retain their spots in the middle of the park.
