With La Liga at stake, Zinedine Zidane is not ready to end his rotation policy with Real Madrid.
The French boss decided that he would face the clash against Sporting with a number of absences. Aside from Raphael Varane and Pepe, both out with injuries, Zizou decided to leave Keylor Navas and the BBC attack out of the squad facing Sporting Gijón.

Speaking about Bale, the French boss admitted there are concerns about his fitness prior to the key clashes against Bayern and Barcelona next week.
"We'll decide if he's ready for the UCL game on Monday, but we're not ready to risk him. He's experiencing a bit of problems near the area where he was operated months ago, and even though he's disappointed because he wanted to help, he's still in high spirits and working to be useful for the team," the coach stated.
Zidane could give a young talent a chance to make his debut, as home grown player Tejero has been included in the team that will travel to Gijón.
