sportsmole.co.uk, 7 February 2024, 10:12
Real Madrid will be aiming to return to winning ways in Spain's top flight when they welcome Girona for a top-of-the-table clash in La Liga on Saturday night.

Los Blancos will enter this match off the back of a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid on Sunday, with Marcos Llorente scoring a last-gasp leveller for Diego Simeone's side at Bernabeu.

Carlo Ancelotti's side are top of the La Liga table, two points ahead of second-placed Girona on the same number of games (23).

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Girona, who have been the surprise package in Spain's top flight this season.
