James in, Isco out for Madrid

James Rodriguez has been included in Real Madrid’s 19-man squad for the Sunday morning fixture against Granada.

Elsewhere, Isco misses out through suspension, while both Dani Carvajal and Sami Khedira sit out after failing to prove their fitness in time for the match.

Kick-off between Madrid and Granada is scheduled for 11:00 BST.

Real Madrid squad in full: Casillas, Navas, Pacheco; Varane, Ramos, Coentrao, Marcelo, Arbeloa, Nacho; Kroos, James, Bale, Silva, Modric, Illarramendi; Ronaldo, Benzema, Chicharito, Jese.
