Madrid will be without talismanic winger Vinicius Junior on Sunday due to suspension, with the Brazilian sent off in Madrid’s opening La Liga match of the calendar year against Valencia. Luka Modric is also serving a one-game ban after collecting five yellow cards.
Carlo Ancelotti will make changes from the team that endured 120 grueling minutes against Celta Vigo midweek and left-back Fran Garcia could be unavailable for selection after picking up an injury during the Copa del Rey win.
Eduardo Camavinga is another new name in the treatment room with a hamstring problem, while Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao are out for the season.
Real Madrid Predicted Lineup Against Las Palmas (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Vazquez, Asensio, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Chaumeny; Rodrigo, Bellingham, Diaz; Mbappe.
Both Vitti and Daley Sinkgraven will miss Sunday’s affair and Las Palmas manager Diego Martinez will also be without Dario Esugo, the midfielder suspended after accumulating five La Liga bookings.
Both Jose Campana and Marvin Park could miss the trip but that has not been ruled out for sure.
Oddly enough, two Scotland internationals could feature for Los Amarillos at the Bernabeu, with Oliver McBurnie and Scott McKenna representing both clubs.
Las Palmas predicted lineup against Real Madrid (4-2-3-1): Silecen; Herzog, Suarez, McKenna, Marmol; Lloydis, Rodriguez; Januj, Munoz, Moleiro; Silva.
Madrid are far from guaranteed for most of the campaign but they should have enough firepower to overcome Las Palmas. Despite Vinicius’ absence, Kylian Mbappe, Rodrigo and Jude Bellingham should easily carry the goalscoring and creative burden at the Bernabeu.
Las Palmas pulled off a shock victory at Barcelona earlier this season but are unlikely to repeat their feat on Sunday. They are one of the bottom half’s top scorers and will fancy their chances of breaching the Madrid defence, but their own backline problems mean they will be well beaten in the capital.
