Real Madrid will hope to keep the pressure on the top two in La Liga when they do battle with Eibar on Saturday following the international break.
Zinedine Zidane's side are fighting an uphill battle to retain their title this season, as six points separate them from leaders Atletico Madrid, while second-placed Barcelona sit two points above their adversaries.
However, Los Blancos enjoyed some positive results before the international break and overcame Celta Vigo 3-1 on March 20, during which Karim Benzema netted a brace and Marco Asensio also found the back of the net.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Real Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's game.
