Before Real Madrid can look ahead to El Clásico, Carlo Ancelotti's side must first take care of business against Celta Vigo.
Despite its 41-game unbeaten streak in La Liga, Real Madrid still trails Barcelona by three points atop the table. A mountain of injuries and draws to Mallorca, Las Palmas and Atlético Madrid hindered Los Blancos' title defense against a revitalized Barcelona under Hansi Flick. To keep the pressure on the Catalans, Real Madrid needs to collect all three points against Celta Vigo.
The good news is Los Blancos received a major injury boost ahead of its upcoming La Liga clash. Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo and Éder Militão are all fit to travel and represent Real Madrid after recovering from various injuries during the October international break. Thibaut Courtois remains a doubt while Dani Carvajal, David Alaba and Brahim Díaz are all still sidelined.
Here's what Real Madrid's XI could look like against Claudio Giráldez's men on Saturday, Oct. 19.
