Real players are still likely to be feeling the effects of their 120 minutes plus penalties at the Etihad.
Vinicius Jr and Dani Carvajal were substituted in extra-time against City but should be fine to start. Ferland Mendy has been named in the Real squad despite missing training on Saturday due to a sore leg.
Barcelona really need to win at the Bernabeu to have any chance of catching Real at the top of the La Liga, and the Catalan giants will be licking their wounds after their Champions League exit at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.
Barca have Sergi Roberto and Andreas Christensen available again after they were both suspended in midweek, with the latter starting.
Ronald Araujo keeps his place in defence despite his costly red card against PSG.
