Real Madrid injury, suspension list vs. Real Betis

Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash with Real Betis.

Real Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways when they host Real Betis on the final matchday of the 2018-19 La Liga campaign.

Madrid have now lost two of their last three in the league, including a 3-1 defeat at Real Sociedad on Sunday.

As a result, Los Blancos will finish the campaign in third spot, potentially as many as 21 points behind champions Barcelona.

It will be a summer rebuild for Zinedine Zidane, but the team must first concentrate on giving their supporters something to cheer at the Bernabeu this weekend.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Madrid.


REAL MADRID'S INJURY LIST

Sergio Ramos

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: May 18 (vs. Betis)

Sergio Ramos has not been involved in a La Liga match since the start of March, with a hamstring injury seeing the club captain miss his team's last seven top-flight fixtures. The 33-year-old could return to action this weekend, although a decision is not expected to be made until later in the week.


Alvaro Odriozola

Status: Out
Type of injury: Collarbone fracture
Possible return date: Unknown

Alvaro Odriozola has made 22 appearances for Los Blancos this season, but has not been involved since the start of April after fracturing his collarbone. The Spaniard will definitely be absent this weekend, although he should be fit for the start of pre-season in July.


Keylor Navas

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Muscular
Possible return date: May 18 (vs. Betis)

Keylor Navas missed training last week with a muscular problem and was not deemed fit enough to face Sociedad on Sunday. The Costa Rica international is expected to be available this weekend, though.


REAL MADRID'S SUSPENSION LIST

Madrid will also be without the services of Jesus Vallejo, who was sent off against Sociedad. As a result, Raphael Varane - left out of the squad on Sunday - should return to partner Nacho at centre-back, providing Ramos does not make it.
