Real Madrid will be out to make it four wins from four in Champions League Group C when they welcome Portuguese outfit Braga to the Bernabeu on Wednesday night.
Los Blancos followed up victories over Napoli and Union Berlin with a 2-1 beating of their upcoming opponents a fortnight ago, where Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham's goals proved decisive.
A point on Wednesday would guarantee Real Madrid's place in the knockout rounds with two matches to spare, but Carlo Ancelotti's side enter the showdown on the back of a goalless draw with Rayo Vallecano in La Liga action at the weekend.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their meeting with Braga, who are third in the section with three points to their name.

Jude Bellingham completed the full 90 minutes of the draw with Vallecano, but the England international had damaged his shoulder in the first half and will need assessing ahead of Wednesday; Ancelotti does not believe that his problem is a severe one, though.

Left-back Ferland Mendy was nowhere to be seen against Vallecano due to overload, but Ancelotti affirmed before the game that he expects the Frenchman to be at his disposal on Wednesday.
