Real Madrid will have to play without striker Karim Benzema against Espanyol after the Frenchman picked up an injury.
According to reports from AS, the striker is suffering from a groin problem sustained in the La Liga giant's 3-0 victory over Ajax in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening.
He was substituted in the game after 74 minutes because of the injury.
As such, it will be doubtful that the ex-Olympique Lyon superstar will play at Cornella-El Prat this weekend, and his absence will be rued by boss Jose Mourinho.
The 23-year-old has been in fine form so far this season, having already scored five goals in nine official appearances for Real Madrid, and also snapping up three assists.
