Osasuna possible starting lineup:
Herrera; U Garcia, Catena, Herrando; Areso, Moncayola, Torro, M Gomez, Mojica; Ruben Garcia; Budimir
Real Madrid possible starting lineup:
Lunin; Carvajal, Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouameni, Kroos; Brahim; Vinicius, Rodrygo
Ahead of the upcoming clash between Osasuna and Real Madrid, both teams are grappling with injury woes and suspensions that will force significant changes to their lineups.
For Osasuna, the unavailability of Aimar Oroz, David Garcia, Kike Barja, and Ruben Pena due to injuries presents a challenge. It's anticipated that Moi Gomez will step in for Oroz, while the rest of the squad might remain largely unchanged from their previous fixture against Girona.
On the other side, Real Madrid will once again have to navigate the absence of key players. Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, and David Alaba continue to recover from ACL injuries, while Dani Ceballos is sidelined with a calf problem. Additionally, star attacker Jude Bellingham is serving the second match of his suspension.
Manager Ancelotti is expected to shuffle the lineup following their last outing against Celta. The return of Dani Carvajal at right-back, alongside Toni Kroos and Aurelien Tchouameni in midfield, is anticipated. This adjustment might see Luka Modric and Eduardo Camavinga relegated to the bench for the upcoming encounter with Osasuna.
Both teams will rely on their squad depth and tactical adjustments to navigate through these absences and secure a positive result in the upcoming fixture.
