Team News
Almeria
Real Madrid
- Almería will likely turn to Sergio Arribas in attack to replace the young Lázaro, who had a disappointing game last week. Arribas, however, came off the bench and from a losing position created the most chances in the game for his team.
- Léo Baptistão and Martin Svidersky are still out with long-term injuries.
- Real Madrid will make at least two changes from last week's victory over Athletic Club: Kepa Arrizabalaga will start in goal following his loan move from Chelsea and Antonio Rüdiger will replace the injured Éder Militão.
- Carlo Ancelotti will likely remain reliant on an injection of youth in his starting eleven, leaving out veterans Toni Kroos and Luka Modrić for the second week running.
- Real Madrid are still in the market for another defender and could make another signing by the end of the week.
