This Saturday afternoon saw Real Madrid’s players take part in their final training session ahead of Sunday’s Clasico against Barcelona, with Carlo Ancelotti able to call upon Dani Carvajal and Eden Hazard during the session.
In fact, as the Real Madrid head coach intimated in his pre-match press conference, Carvajal and Hazard have been deemed fit to be included in the squad list for the Clasico.
Despite this, though, it remains unclear if the right-back and winger will be able to be named in Ancelotti’s starting line-up.
Benzema fit
Karim Benzema has spent the last two days in the gym in order to protect himself from the knock he picked up against Shakhtar Donetsk, and he will be able to start against Barcelona.
Ancelotti remains without the injured Gareth Bale, Isco, Luka Jovic and Dani Ceballos, while Antonio Blanco has been included in the squad list.
