Bale, Ramos Out Of Madrid Clash Vs CSKA Moscow 

Sergio Ramos and Gareth Bale are among four Real Madrid stars missing from the squad to visit CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The La Liga giants confirmed the players that will fly to Russia for their second match of this season’s competition on Sunday, with Julen Lopetegui omitting both Ramos and Bale from his 20-man travelling party after they picked up injuries in Saturday’s scoreless derby draw against Atletico Madrid.

Spain international Ramos sustained a cut during a clash of heads with Saul Niguez early in proceedings, although he recovered to see out the contest.
Bale’s fitness is of greater concern, with the Wales winger forced off at half-time with a suspected thigh injury.

Meanwhile, left-back Marcelo and in-form Isco missed the first Madrid derby of the campaign and have again been ruled out as they recover from a respective calf injury and appendicitis.
