Real Madrid's Two Players at Risk Could Be Knocked Out for El Clásico

Real Madrid Is Already Fully Focused on the Match Against Celta de Vigo that will take place in just a few hours at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium this very afternoon. The early match against Pablo Giráldez's players, however, is not without competitive risks that could significantly affect Real Madrid's future in LaLiga.

Not only because of FC Barcelona's victory against Real Valladolid on the same matchday, in the match played at the new José Zorilla. Given that comeback victory by Hansi Flick's players, the merengue sports discipline needs to earn three points to stay in the fight for the LaLiga leadership.

Additionally, they must be careful not to lose two very important players for the Clásico on May 11. Because this match serves as a prelude to the game that will be played next Sunday at the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium, where it could finally be decided who will win the current league season. To reach that match with all players available, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Dani Ceballos must be especially careful.

The shortage of players that Real Madrid has been suffering since the beginning of the season, both in defense and midfield, has forced Carlo Ancelotti to improvise. The Reggiolo coach, therefore, points to Tchouaméni and Ceballos as two of his key players. Especially because the French '14' must perform as a center-back alongside Raúl Asencio.

Maximum Precaution

At the same time, Dani Ceballos is one of the first options to compose the merengue engine room due to the injury of other players like Camavinga or the repositioning of Tchouaméni. Therefore, the absence of either footballer would be a catastrophe, yet another, that would place Real Madrid in a sporting position as uncomfortable as it is weak for the league Clásico.

Everything would change if Aurélien Tchouaméni and Dani Ceballos receive a yellow card during the match against Celta de Vigo. Both are on the verge of suspension, as they have received four yellow cards during the last matches. With one more warning, they would be forced to serve a suspension during the white team's visit to the Ciudad Condal.

That's why Real Madrid will pay special attention to the cases of Tchouaméni and Ceballos, very important players now for Carlo Ancelotti who could be left out of his squad list. At the same time, the competitive urgency of the match against Celta de Vigo demands their presence, which undoubtedly increases the risks of their suspension for the league Clásico.

Carlo Ancelotti has surely warned his players of this very important circumstance not only for this match at Santiago Bernabéu. The visit of Pablo Giráldez's players is the prelude to the match that defines the fight for the LaLiga 24/25 leadership... and Aurélien Tchouaméni and Dani Ceballos wantto be on the Montjuïc field to help Real Madrid win it.
