Bellingham ready for Cádiz, Ancelotti takes five youngsters to the south coast

Jude Bellingham quickly recovered from his shoulder injury. The Real Madrid star will be ready for the match of the 14th round of the Spanish Primera Division with Cadiz.

Bellingham is on the list of footballers registered for the match in Cadiz. This means that he only skipped the meeting with Valencia (5-1) before the international break.

That's one less worry for the Royal Club coach Carlo Ancelotti, though. During the break, while playing for the national teams, Vinicius Junior and Eduardo Camavinga suffered injuries. Both are done with competitive football until at least January.

In addition to them, Kepa, Militao, Tchouameni and Arda Guler are on the list of injured players. The Italian can therefore count on only 16 first team players for the meeting with Cadiz. Ancelotti added five youth team players to the senior squad - Mario Martin, Nico Paz, Gonzalo and goalkeepers Diego Piñeiro and Fran.

Los Blancos are currently second in the table with 32 points, two less than Girona, and one more than Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. They failed twice in the last four rounds, drawing with Sevilla (1-1) and Rayo Vallecano (0-0).

On the other hand, Cádiz has gone eight league games without a win (three draws and five defeats). The only triumph since September 2 so far was achieved at the beginning of November in the Spanish Cup, against lower league team Baladona Futur, but only after a penalty shootout.

Cadiz now have 10 points from 12 rounds, and sit 16th in the table. The relegation zone is only two points away from them - Celta Vigo have exactly two points less and are in the bottom three.

Last season, Real defeated Cadiz in both meetings. In November last year it was 2-1, then in April 2023 the scoreboard showed two-nil.
