Real Madrid will be looking to continue their pursuit of La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid when they travel to relegation-threatened Real Valladolid on Saturday night.

Zinedine Zidane's side have won their last three in the league, including a 2-0 victory over Valencia last weekend courtesy of goals from Karim Benzema and Toni Kroos.

The reigning champions are currently second in the table but sit six points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, who still have a game in hand over their bitter rivals.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Madrid could line up against Valladolid.

Out: Dani Carvajal (hamstring), Marcelo (calf), Eder Militao (muscle), Sergio Ramos (knee), Alvaro Odriozola (hamstring), Federico Valverde (muscle), Rodrygo Goes (hamstring)
Doubtful: Eden Hazard (muscle)

Madrid will again be without the services of Marcelo, Eder Militao, Sergio Ramos, Alvaro Odriozola, Federico Valverde and Rodrygo Goes for this weekend's contest through injury.

Dani Carvajal, meanwhile, is facing another spell on the sidelines with the hamstring problem that he picked up against Valencia, meaning that fit-again Lucas Vazquez should come into the side at right-back.

Eden Hazard has made huge steps forward in his recovery from a muscular problem, but this match will come too soon for the Belgian, meaning that Vinicius Junior and Marco Asensio should again join Benzema in attack.

There are not expected to be many surprises in the away side's XI for this game, with Nacho again likely to line up alongside Raphael Varane at the heart of the defence due to the absences of Ramos and Militao.

Casemiro, Luka Modric and Kroos will be the midfield three once again, meanwhile, with Isco providing another option from the bench, which is likely to include Sergio Arribas, Victor Chust and Diego Altube.
