Cristiano and Keylor left out of Zidane's squad to face Granada
The Portuguese has been left out of the squad five times this season and the Costa Rican has not played outside of the Bernabeu since the 5th of April against Leganes.Real Madrid vs Valencia live stream: match info and team news
Real Madrid's squad news for the trip to Granada brings with it two surprises. Zinedine Zidane continues his policy of rotation with his players at the tail end of the season and has left Cristiano Ronaldo and Keylor Navas out. It will prove another chance for James, Asensio, Vazquez or Morata as both Bale and Ronaldo are out for the game. It is unclear as to whether Zidane starts Isco as he looks to keep his side fresh for their trip across town to the Vicente Calderon on Wednesday night.
The Portuguese is out of the squad for the fourth consecutive away game (the last time he played outside the Bernabeu was against Athletic Bilbao in March) while Navas has not played away from home since April 4th when they played Leganes although he did make the bench against Deportivo la Coruña recently. The others not to make the squad are Pepe, Varane, Carvajal and Bale.
Squad list:
Goalkeepers: Kiko Casilla and Rubén Yáñez.
Defenders: Ramos, Nacho, Marcelo, Coentrao and Danilo.
Midfielders: Kroos, James, Casemiro, Kovacic, Modric, Asensio and Isco.
Forwards: Benzema, Lucas Vázquez, Mariano and Morata.
