sportsmole.co.uk, 9 May 2024, 12:29
Newly-crowned La Liga champions Real Madrid will be aiming to make it eight straight victories in Spain's top flight when they head to relegation-threatened Granada on Saturday evening.

Carlo Ancelotti's side were confirmed as title winners last weekend, with an outstanding campaign leaving them 13 points clear of second-placed Girona in the table with just four games left to play.

Los Blancos then booked their spot in the Champions League final on Wednesday night courtesy of a 2-1 victory over Bayern Munich in the second leg of their semi-final.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Granada, who are 19th, 11 points from the safety of 17th spot.

David Alaba

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Alaba suffered an ACL injury against Villarreal in La Liga last December, and the Austria international will not be available for the capital side until later this year.

Aurelien Tchouameni

Status: Out

Type of injury: Foot

Possible return date: June 1 (vs. Borussia Dortmund)

Tchouameni will miss the end of the La Liga season due to a stress injury in his left foot, which he picked up against Bayern on Wednesday, and it is being claimed that he only has a 20% chance of being fit for the Champions League final.

REAL MADRID'S SUSPENSION LIST

Real Madrid have no players banned for this match.
