Man Cityvs.Real Madrid

The last-eight contest is delicately poised following a 3-3 draw in the first leg at Bernabeu last week.

The capital giants will enter this match off the back of a 1-0 victory over Mallorca in La Liga, and they have an eight-point lead over second-placed Barcelona ahead of El Clasico next weekend.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Man City, who beat Luton Town 5-1 in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Thibaut Courtois

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Courtois underwent surgery on an ACL injury last August; the club's number one goalkeeper had been in line to return at the end of March, but it was revealed before the international break that he had suffered another knee injury in training, leading to a season-ending operation.

David Alaba

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Alaba suffered an ACL injury against Villarreal on December 17, and the Austria international will not be available for Real Madrid until the 2024-25 campaign.

Rodrygo

Status: Minor doubt

Type of injury: Knock

Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Man City)

Rodrygo did not feature against Mallorca on Saturday due to "a knock", and the Brazilian will therefore need to undergo a late fitness test to determine his availability for this match.

REAL MADRID'S SUSPENSION LIST

Aurelien Tchouameni

Status: Out

Possible return date: April 21 (vs. Barcelona)

Real Madrid will be without the services of Tchouameni through suspension on Wednesday, with the Frenchman picking up a milestone yellow card in the first leg of the quarter-final last week.
