Real Madrid could be without Dani Carvajal and Karim Benzema for Sunday's La Liga contest with Cadiz, according to a report.

Dani Carvajal and Karim Benzema could reportedly both be absent for Real Madrid in Sunday's La Liga clash with Cadiz at the Bernabeu.

Los Blancos will definitely be missing Marcelo, Marco Asensio, Rodrygo, Gareth Bale and Andriy Lunin for the match following positive coronavirus tests, while Luka Modric remains a doubt despite returning a negative test.

Dani Ceballos is still absent due to a long-term ankle problem, but according to Marca, Carvajal and Benzema could also be unavailable for Carlo Ancelotti's side this weekend.

Carvajal suffered a muscular issue during the 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid last time out, with the injury forcing him off in the 81st minute of the contest.

Benzema, meanwhile, only played 45 minutes of the victory over Atletico after suffering a hamstring problem earlier this month, and he is still believed to be nursing the issue.

Lucas Vazquez and Luka Jovic could earn starts if both Carvajal and Benzema miss out, while Eden Hazard is also in line to feature in the first XI due to the absences of Rodrygo, Asensio and Bale.
