Copa del Rey:

Real Madrid faces Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu on Thursday night for another installment of El Clasico in the Copa del Rey semi-final.

Iran PressEurope: The team has published their squad list for Thursday’s El Clasico against FC Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey Semifinals.

REAL MADRID SQUAD:

Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin and Luis López

Defenders: Carvajal, E. Militão, Vallejo, Nacho, Odriozola, Lucas V. and Rüdiger.

Midfielders: Kroos, Modrić, Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouameni and D. Ceballos.

Forwards: Hazard, Benzema, Asensio, Vini Jr., Rodrygo, Mariano and Álvaro.

Rodrygo is back with the team after rejoining the squad in training this Tuesday. It might still be too early for him to feature in the starting lineup after a muscle injury, but he could be a good asset to have off the bench if needed.

Real Madrid will need to take this game very seriously as Barcelona have been vulnerable for their last two games. This match could very well be a turning point for the remainder of the season and Los Blancos need to take advantage of that.
