Real Madrid injury, suspension update vs. Valencia: Will Rodrygo, Thibaut Courtois be available?

Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their La Liga clash with Valencia.

This was written before it was confirmed that the match had been postponed due to the devastating floods in the south-east of Spain. A new date for the match will be revealed in due course.

Real Madrid will be bidding to bounce back from their heavy loss in El Clasico when they head to Valencia on Saturday night.

Los Blancos were beaten 4-0 at home by Barcelona in Spain's top flight last weekend, with the result leaving them in second position in the La Liga table, six points behind their bitter rivals.

The loss was the capital outfit's first in the league since September 2023, and they will now be looking to recover when they head to Mestalla for a clash with a Los Che side that are bottom of the division on seven points.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Valencia.


Thibaut Courtois
