Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has named Aurelien Tchouameni, Luka Modric and Eduardo Camavinga in his squad for Friday's La Liga clash with Real Valladolid.
Mariano Diaz is the team's only absentee, with the striker picking up an ankle problem which will rule him out of this contest.
Tchouameni and Camavinga were expected unavailable due to their involvement in the World Cup final with France.
Luka Modric has also had minimum preparation after representing Croatia in the semi-finals of the World Cup, but all three midfielders are in the squad and are likely to start on the bench.
As a result, there could be a spot in the middle of the park for Dani Ceballos alongside Toni Kroos and Federico Valverde.
Karim Benzema was sent home from the World Cup due to injury, but the Frenchman is fit to lead the line for Real Madrid, and he could be joined in the final third by Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior.
Antonio Rudiger is likely to be the player to miss out at the back, meanwhile, with Eder Militao and David Alaba set to line up as the two central defenders.
There are also not expected to be any surprises when it comes to the full-back positions, with Dani Carvajal and Ferland Mendy set to be named in the XI.
Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Mendy; Valverde, Ceballos, Kroos; Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinicius
