Suffers hamstring injury
Guler (muscular) has been diagnosed with a muscle injury to the biceps femoris in his right leg and will be monitored on a day-to-day basis, with the issue potentially keeping him out for at least four weeks, according to the club.
Analysis: Guler's injury adds clarity to the muscular issue that prevented him from training on Thursday, and the projected timeline of at least four weeks represents a significant blow for Real Madrid heading into the final stretch of the season. The biceps femoris injury is a serious muscular setback that will require careful management before the Turkish midfielder can return to action. Brahim Diaz remain the leading candidate to cover his role in attack. Guler had been one of the more creative presences in Real Madrid's lineup this season, making his extended absence all the more costly.
Assists Tuesday
Guler assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Tuesday's 2-1 win over Deportivo Alaves.
Analysis: Guler helped open up the scoring Tuesday as he assisted Kylian Mbappe's goal in the 30th minute. It marked his ninth assist in La Liga this season to go along with his four goals. He created three chances and recorded two assists before being subbed off in the 58th minute for Franco Mastantuono.
