Real Madrid will use their return to La Liga this weekend as a testing ground for an exciting UEFA Champions League trip to Liverpool.
Los Blancos make the short trip through Madrid tomorrow for a derby clash with Leganes before flying to Merseyside.
Carlo Ancelotti is still balancing his side against various injury problems and his choices for the Leganes game outline that cautious approach from the Italian boss.
Aurelien Tchouameni, Lucas Vazquez and Rodrygo Goes are all racing to be fit in time to face the Premier League leaders, but all three will miss the match at Leganes.
The latest update indicates that they will be ready to board a flight from the Spanish capital, with the clash with Leganes not seen as a risk worth taking pending more rehabilitation in Valdebebas.
Ancelotti is expected to provide a final update on the three players on November 25 before facing Liverpool at Anfield two days later.
