Real Madrid: Injured and suspended players to face Las Palmas on matchday 3 of LaLiga

This Thursday, August 29, Las Palmas host Real Madrid at the Gran Canaria Stadium on matchday three of LaLiga 2024/25. Las Palmas are looking to bounce back after a 2-1 defeat to Leganés, while Real Madrid are in good form after beating Valladolid 3-0. The Whites start as favourites with their attack led by Vinícius and Rodrygo, although Las Palmas will try to take advantage of the support of their fans to spring a surprise. A duel with history that promises emotions on the island.

Real Madrid’s talented English midfielder Jude Bellingham has suffered an injury to the plantar muscle of his right leg during training at Valdebebas. He will be out of action for around a month. This loss will be significant for Los Blancos, as Bellingham had been instrumental in the start of the season. His absence against Las Palmas will be noticeable in terms of attacking creation and midfield control, especially given his immediate impact since arriving at the club.

Eduardo Camavinga will also be absent from the game against Las Palmas due to a recent knee sprain. The French midfielder is a key player in the transition of play and in the balance of the team, so his absence will affect the depth and dynamism of the midfield. Without him, Real Madrid will lose a valuable defensive and offensive resource, especially in high pressing and ball recovery.

Austrian defender David Alaba is currently recovering from a serious injury to his anterior cruciate ligament. Although he is not expected to return in the short term, his absence leaves Real Madrid’s defensive line weakened. Against Las Palmas, his absence could be felt in the lack of an experienced leader at the back, especially at critical moments of the match. The team will have to regroup without his versatility and ability to lead from the back.

After Ferland Mendy served his suspension in the last match against Valladolid, for being sent off in the first league match, Real Madrid will not have any players suspended for this third match.
