Real Madrid heads into the sixth matchday of the UEFA Champions League with the dubious distinction of being the team with the most players at risk of suspension. A total of four players—Vinicius Junior, Endrick Moreira, Luka Modric, and Lucas Vázquez—are just one yellow card away from missing the seventh matchday.

Injury Concerns Add to the Woes

In addition to disciplinary risks, Real Madrid also faces significant injury challenges. Éder Militao and Eduardo Camavinga, both sidelined with injuries, are confirmed absentees for the crucial clash against Atalanta in Bergamo.

How Other Spanish Teams Compare

Compared to Real Madrid, other Spanish teams are navigating the tournament with fewer disciplinary concerns:

• Atlético de Madrid: Only Ángel Correa is at risk of suspension.
• Girona: Paulo Gazzaniga, Bryan Gil, and Cristhian Stuani are on the brink.
• Barcelona: Heads into the matchday with a "clean" slate and no players in danger.

Suspensions in Other Teams

While Real Madrid grapples with yellow-card risks, other teams in the competition are also dealing with key absences due to suspensions:

• Paris Saint-Germain: Ousmane Dembélé.
• Liverpool: Alexis Mac Allister.
• RB Leipzig: Castello Lukeba.
• Sturm Graz: Jusuf Gazibegovic.
• Monaco: Wilfried Singo and Christian Mawissa.
• Brest: Ludovic Ajorque.
• Slovan Bratislava: Marko Tolic.
