After a flurry of new signings, Madrid's supporters will be expecting a much better title challenge this time out as they look to end Barcelona's recent dominance of the Spanish top flight.

Pre-season was concerning for Real Madrid, but worries were soothed by Saturday's comfortable 3-1 victory over Celta Vigo.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the match against Real Valladolid.
