News Update :

Bale back for Real at Valencia

Friday, 20 December 2013



Gareth Bale could return for Real Madrid in Sunday's La Liga fixture away to managerless Valencia.

The Wales international missed Wednesday's cup win over Olimpic Xativa through injury but is in contention for a starting place as the Spanish league returns.

Anything less than a win risks Real slipping further off the pace of La Liga leaders Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, who share a five point advantage at the top of the table.



Valencia are languishing in ninth and sacked Miroslav Dukic as manager on Monday, one day after losing 3-0 at the hands of Atletico.

Interim boss Nico Estevez led the side to a 1-0 win over Gimnastic de Tarragon in the Copa del Rey on Thursday and will continue in the role for the visit of Madrid.

Real's Cristiano Ronaldo, who like Bale was absent in the 2-0 win over Xativa, is also once again available for selection in Carlo Ancelotti's side.
