Los Blancos have already qualified for the Champions League knockout stage, and they will face Inter Milan next week for the right to finish first in Group D.

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti’s team has won their previous five league games, including two emphatic victories against Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao on November 28 and December 1, respectively.

Possible Real Madrid Starting Lineup Against Real Sociedad: Carvajal Returns; Rodrygo to replace Asensio

Real Madrid’s Dani Ceballos and Gareth Bale are still unavailable for selection, but the league leaders’ first-team squad is otherwise in fantastic shape.

Dani Carvajal was rested against Athletic on Wednesday night but is expected to return, while Rodrygo is set to start ahead of Marco Asensio in a front three.

Ancelotti has options in midfield, with players like Federico Valverde and Eduardo Camavinga vying for a starting spot, but Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, and Casemiro are likely to return.

Real Madrid XI: Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Mendy; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinicius
