Real Madrid injury, suspension news vs. Salzburg: Lucas Vazquez ban leaves Ancelotti short at full-back, midfield casualties piling up

Sports Mole looks at Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of the final of their Champions League clash with Red Bull Salzburg

Real Madrid will look to put distance between themselves and the sides outside the top 24 in the Champions League when they welcome Red Bull Salzburg to the Bernabeu on Wednesday.

A woeful start saw Los Blancos lose three of their first five Champions League games this season, but a win on matchday six has eased the nerves slightly ahead of this one.

Carlo Ancelotti's men enter the game in great form too, seeing off Celta Vigo and Las Palmas over the past week, scoring nine goals in the process.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Salzburg, who need a miracle to progress from this position, after five defeats in their opening six league phase games.


Eduardo Camavinga

Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: January 25 (vs. Real Valladolid)

Eduardo Camavinga was not part of the squad that beat Las Palmas 4-1 over the weekend, and the midfielder was not in training on Monday morning ahead of this clash, making him a major doubt.


Dani Carvajal

Dani Carvajal will be sidelined for the rest of the season due to the severe knee injury the right-back suffered in the win over Villarreal in October.
