Rayo Vallecano injuries and suspensions Out: Leo Baptistao (groin). In doubt: Nery Castillo (illness), Ze Castro (shoulder), José Raul Baena (knee) Real Madrid injuries and suspensions Out: Pepe (thigh) James Rodriguez is back for Real Madrid, but they're not quite fully healthy yet. Pepe keeps picking up injuries, so Los Merengues need Raphael Varane to step up his game. He's had a very up-and-down season. Match date/time: Wednesday, 4 p. m. ET, 10 p.
Rayo are a quality side who are on a solid run, but they're unlikely to upset Madrid on Wednesday. They refuse to compromise their attacking style of play against top teams, and it's gotten them handily beaten by Atlético Madrid and Barcelona. The reason they're in ninth instead of the bottom three is the same reason they're likely to lose this game by multiple goals.

As per usual, Madridistas only care about what Bale has done for them lately, not the two trophies he won for them last season, and would prefer for him to be the odd man out. Ultimately, what he does in this match doesn't matter much. Ancelotti can play off any decision as simple squad rotation. What really matters is who starts in Champions League, and that's what everyone is auditioning for over the next couple games.
