Real Madrid face a challenging situation ahead of their LaLiga Clasico against Barcelona, as both goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and forward Rodrygo will be sidelined due to leg muscle injuries sustained during their 5-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.The club confirmed that Courtois has suffered a muscle strain in his left adductor, an injury reminiscent of the one he sustained during last month's LaLiga derby against Atletico Madrid.Meanwhile, Rodrygo is set to undergo an MRI scan on Thursday to evaluate the severity of his injury.However, there's a sense of optimism within the club that it may be a minor issue, and he could return in time for next week's match against Valencia.Adding to their injury woes, Real Madrid will also be without captain Dani Carvajal and defender David Alaba, both of whom are recovering from ACL tears.On a positive note, Morocco midfielder Brahim Diaz has returned to training after being out for over a month with a leg injury, and he may be fit to play against Barcelona.
