Real Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways in LaLiga Santander when they welcome Levante to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Thursday evening.
Los Blancos suffered a 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid at the weekend, having secured the LaLiga Santander title one week earlier against Espanyol, whilst Levante boosted their hopes of avoiding relegation with a 2-1 win over Real Sociedad.
Real Madrid have welcome Eden Hazard back in first-team training following his spell on the sidelines due to a leg operation, but he is unavailable for selection here.
Marcelo, Dani Ceballos, Isco, Gareth Bale and David Alaba were all unavailable against Atletico and are all doubts for this fixture.
Although Carlo Ancelotti decided to rest a number of regular starters for the Madrid derby, it is expected that many will return to the XI on Thursday.
Levante will be without Roberto Soldado, Jorge de Frutos, Carlos Clerc and Shkodran Mustafi for their trip to the Spanish capital.
