How Real Madrid could line up against Sevilla

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

Real Madrid will be looking to ease some of the pressure on head coach Zinedine Zidane when the Spanish champions resume their La Liga season away to Sevilla on Saturday afternoon.

Los Blancos, who lost at home to Alaves last weekend, are without a victory in their last three in Spain's top flight and sit down in fourth position, seven points behind division leaders Real Sociedad.

The capital giants will also enter the match off the back of a disappointing result in the Champions League, having lost 2-0 away to Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday night.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Madrid could line up on Saturday.



Possible RMA XI vs. SEV

Out: Eden Hazard (muscle), Federico Valverde (shin), Dani Carvajal (thigh)
Doubtful: Sergio Ramos (hamstring), Luka Jovic (coronavirus), Alvaro Odriozola (calf)

Madrid still have a number of injury problems, with Eden Hazard, Federico Valverde and Dani Carvajal ruled out of this weekend's contest.

Various reports earlier this week suggested that Sergio Ramos could make a return from a hamstring problem against his former club, but it seems more likely that the captain will be held back for next week's key Champions League fixture with Borussia Monchengladbach.

Alvaro Odriozola has stepped up his recovery from a calf problem and could make the bench, while Luka Jovic is also available for selection having recently tested negative for coronavirus.

Zidane is expected to make changes from the side that started the 2-0 defeat to Shakhtar, with Casemiro likely to replace Martin Odegaard to provide more protection to an under-strength defence.

Vinicius Junior is also pushing to be involved on the left, meaning that Marco Asensio could switch to the right with Rodrygo Goes expected to drop down to the bench.

Karim Benzema, who has six goals in 12 appearances in 2020-21, has had his injury problems this season, but the striker featured on Tuesday night and should lead the away side's line here.
