Gareth Bale and Pepe are the only injury concerns facing coach Zinedine Zidane ahead of Real Madrid’s trip to Granada tomorrow.


The Welsh forward, who continues to rehab a muscular injury in his right leg, spent a second consecutive day training inside the club’s Valdebebas facility away from the rest of the squad. The club’s record signing has struggled with muscle problems in Spain, this being his fifth calf muscle injury since joining Real Madrid from Spurs in 2013.

Pepe is also out of tomorrow’s game having missed last weekend’s win over Espanyol and continues to suffer from plantar fascia discomfort in his right foot. It’s currently unknown when he’ll be back to full fitness.
