TEAM NEWS

Real Madrid have no new fitness concerns ahead of Wednesday's Copa del Rey encounter against Celta Vigo at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Defenders Pepe, Marcelo and Fabio Coentrao all remain sidelined, but Sergio Ramos is available after missing the Liga victory over Real Sociedad through suspension.

Boss Jose Mourinho could again overlook Iker Casillas in favour of Antonio Adan, whose red card during the weekend does not rule him out of this clash.

Celta winger Augusto Fernandez returns after serving a one-match ban and missing last weekend's clash against Real Valladolid.

Defender Samuel misses out with a knee injury, but otherwise coach Paco Herrera has a full squad at his disposal.
