Blessed with abundant pace, Carvajal is solid in defence and is a useful outlet on the right-hand side during an attack. The 25-year-old will be keen to make amends for his red card in the Clasico.

Flying into tackles and providing an imposing presence in midfield, Casemiro's presence allows the likes of Kroos and Modric more freedom to join in Madrid's attacks.
