Manager Álvaro Arbeloa faces multiple injury concerns ahead of the derby. Ferland Mendy (muscle), Dani Ceballos (calf), and Rodrygo (knee) are all unavailable. While Mendy and Ceballos are expected back next month, Rodrygo is ruled out for the rest of the season.
Éder Militão has returned to training but remains doubtful, whereas Jude Bellingham is back in full training and could feature.
In the meantime, Thibaut Courtois is sidelined with a thigh injury until April, meaning Andriy Lunin is expected to continue as the starting goalkeeper. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé is set to make his first start in over a month after returning from injury.
