The reigning European champions face their toughest test so far at Anfield, against a Reds side sitting top of the table after four straight wins.
Madrid are without Vinicius Jr, who is set to miss a few weeks with a left leg injury and has not travelled with the squad.
Rodrygo is also not be involved, having picked up a knock against Osasuna earlier this month, while Eder Militao’s season is over after he suffered an ACL injury.
Dani Carvajal remains out and although Lucas Vazquez is set to make the squad, having recovered ahead of schedule from his own injury problems, he does not come straight back into the side. Federico Valverde therefore fills in again at right-back.
With Vinicius and Rodrygo both out, Brahim Diaz and Guler start at Anfield, the former partnering Kylian Mbappe up front.
Jude Bellingham starts in midfield, along with Luka Modric and Eduardo Camavinga in a deeper role.
Real Madrid XI: Courtois, Valverde, Asencio, Rudiger, Mendy, Guler, Camavinga, Modric, Bellingham, Brahim, Mbappe
Subs: Lunin, Gonzalez, Endrick, Vazquez, Vallejo, Ceballos, Garcia, Gonzalo
Time and date: 8pm GMT tonight on Wednesday November 27, 2024
