Real Madrid will face Elche next week in La Liga, and the Madridistas can expect Eden Hazard to return from injury.
Eden Hazard has been training with Real Madrid since sustaining an injury in the first half of the loss to Deportivo Alavés. He could have played as a substitute against Granada, but Zinedine Zidane wisely decided not to risk the player in such a tough and physical match.
The Whites were flying high with Hazard in the lineup as he helped lead them to two wins over Inter Milan, a comeback against Borussia Monchengladbach and four goals against Huesca. But Real Madrid have also done very well without Hazard recently, winning six straight games during the Belgian’s injury season last. So you can only imagine how good they will be with him.
According to a report by MARCA’s Juan Ignacio García-Ochoa, Zidane’s goal is to gradually bring Hazard back to the team, which makes sense given the injury history and how well the team is playing. And now, Hazard has one more week to rest with his teammates before next week’s game against Elche at half table. Real have generally been playing every three or four games.
According to MARCA, Hazard is expected to get about 30 minutes off the bench against Elche, which sounds like the perfect time to settle in. He could have gotten some playing time against Granada, but the extra break will help. Also, Elche shouldn’t be such a tough opponent, although it will be challenging enough for Hazard to really put himself to the test in his first game after injury.

The Madridistas will hope that Hazard can avoid more serious injuries, because they know that this team is capable of going far in all competitions with a healthy Hazard. Despite all the troubles this season, Real Madrid have the potential to win it all, but their success at the highest level of the Champions League depends on Hazard being the superstar player that he is.
Relaxing it slowly is the best in the long run, and all eyes will be on Hazard’s touches and moves in Elche next week.
