Cadiz are set to host Real Madrid at the Estadio Ramon de Carranza for the penultimate gameweek of the season tonight, and have lined up like a team looking for a win despite wrapping up the title.
Andriy Lunin starts in goal instead of Thibaut Courtois, who did not make the cut for the squad list due to illness. Eder Militao retains his spot alongside Jesus Vallejo starting in the heart of the defence.
Lucas Vazquez and Nacho Fernandez, meanwhile, start as the fullbacks on the right and left respectively.
Only Federico Valverde keeps his spot in the midfield trident as Casemiro replaces Eduardo Camavinga as the defensive midfielder. Luka Modric is not on the bench either, as Toni Kroos will assume responsibility as the third midfielder.
Interestingly enough, Karim Benzema is not in the squad for this game. Mariano takes his place as the striker, while Rodrygo and Marco Asensio round off the lineup on the left and right-wing respectively.
Confirmed Madrid XI: Lunin; Vazquez, Militao, Vallejo, Nacho; Valverde, Casemiro, Kroos; Asensio, Mariano, Rodrygo
