MADRID (Reuters) - Real Madrid will be without goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and forward Rodrygo for their upcoming LaLiga Clasico against Barcelona after both sustained leg muscle injuries in their 5-2 win over Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.

Real confirmed on Wednesday Courtois suffered a muscle strain in his left adductor during the Champions League match, the same injury that he sustained in last month's LaLiga derby against Atletico Madrid.
