Real Madrid have announced their squad for Sunday’s clash against Barcelona, with the main absentee being Vinicius Junior, who is serving a four-match suspension.
Apart from the Brazilian forward, there are no major changes to Los Blancos’ squad compared with their midweek Champions League match against RB Leipzig.
Real Madrid head into the derby in high spirits after recording four consecutive victories, and they will be looking to extend their winning streak against their fiercest rivals.
Meanwhile, Barcelona will be eager to bounce back from their defeat against Paris Saint-Germain as they seek a positive result against the Madrid side.
Real Madrid’s full squad:
Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin, Mestre.
Defenders: Militao, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Cucurella, Carreras, Rudiger, Dumfries, Huijsen.
Midfielders: Bellingham, Camavinga, Tchouameni, Valverde, Guler, Bernardo Silva, Thiago Pitarch.
Forwards: Mbappe, Endrick, C. Espi, Brahim Diaz, Yan Diomande.
Despite Vinicius Junior’s absence, Real Madrid will look to rely on the rest of their attacking options to maintain their positive form in one of the most important matches of the season.
