Real Madrid suffer late blow for derby that could decide 🏆 | OneFootball

Real Madrid have a LAST-MINUTE absence for Sunday’s (10) clásico against Barcelona, scheduled for 4 p.m. at Camp Nou.

Forward Mbappé — who was expected to start — has been left out of the squad due to a thigh injury.

Gonzalo García and Mastantuono emerge as the main options to fill the attacking spot.

A likely Real Madrid lineup is Courtois; Alexander-Arnold, Rüdiger, Huijsen and Fran García; Tchouaméni, Thiago Pitarch and Bellingham; Brahím Díaz, Vini Jr and Gonzalo (Mastantuono).

Barcelona, meanwhile, are expected to line up with Joan García; Koundé, Cubarsí, Gerard Martín and João Cancelo; Pedri, Gavi and Dani Olmo; Fermín López, Rashford and Lewandowski.

Lamine Yamal and Raphinha are not at 100% and will start on the bench.

Real Madrid are second, with 77 points — Barcelona lead with 88.

There are only four rounds left. Real therefore need to win ALL of their remaining games. And hope for four Barça defeats.

A draw this Sunday (10) is enough for Barcelona to seal the La Liga title against Real.
