Courtois returns in goal for Real Madrid, Trent starts against Santander (Lineups)

Racing Santander host Real Madrid in a La Liga Matchday 11 clash. Jose Mourinho's side come into the game on a five-match winning run across all competitions. Spirits are sky-high in the camp following their huge Clasico victory over Barcelona at Camp Nou last weekend. Despite that triumph, Los Blancos still trail the Catalans—who swept past Alaves yesterday—by six points, and sit four adrift of Atletico Madrid. Santander have enjoyed a steady campaign so far, built largely on their formidable home form, with Jose Lopez's men yet to taste defeat at the Estadio El Sardinero this season.

Mourinho has made two changes from the side that started El Clasico. Thibaut Courtois returns between the posts at the expense of Andriy Lunin, while Trent Alexander-Arnold is handed a starting berth, with the Englishman replacing Federico Valverde at right-back.
