Real Madrid have made one change to their starting XI from Sunday’s win at Eibar for Wednesday night’s visit of Granada in La Liga.
Luka Modric is ruled out of the clash with a muscular injury and he has replaced by Fede Valverde in the starting XI for Los Blancos, who otherwise are unchanged from the win in the Basque Country.

Eden Hazard and Vinicius Junior are among the players who have returned to fitness but they only make the bench for this game, with Lucas Vazquez and Rodrygo Goes remaining either side of Karim Benzema in Madrid’s attack.
