Real Madrid will be looking to make it five La Liga victories in a row when they continue their 2019-20 campaign away to basement side Espanyol on Sunday night.

Madrid's excellent form since the restart has seen them move to the top of the table, although Barcelona will have the chance to reclaim first spot before Los Blancos take to the field in this game.

Zinedine Zidane's side have beaten Eibar, Valencia, Real Sociedad and Mallorca since returning to action earlier this month and will be confident of putting another victory on the board in this game.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's clash.
