The upcoming match is against Osasuna away from in the La liga match day 23. Osasuna are 11th on the leader-board and Real are top of the league. This is a chance for Real to return back to winning ways and as the gap at the top is very narrow, Madrid is not going to take any risks this time.
Looking at the
In the goal Courtois will start and will start fresh after the rest during the Copa del Rey game, he had several good games in the past, things look definitely very positive for Courtois and Real Madrid. Areola was very poor in the goal during the Copa del Rey game and was one of the week links but with Courtois back things should be better.
Ramos and Varane will start as the center backs. Mendy will start on the left after the rest during the last game and Carvajal will start on the right. So Mendy, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal should start. Defence has been in good form except the poor outing in the last game. Though the whole defence will be changed, Marcelo and Nacho were very poor last time out and with the changes it is expected to prevent the usual errors those have led to the goals in the past games.
As Asensio has been injured, Bale and Hazard have just recovered, both would not start. After several injuries and returns it will be Benzema, Vazquez and Isco to start. And Bale, Jovic and Vinicius should be on the bench.

All the five super mid-fielders are doing great, Modric, Kroos, Valverde, Isco and Casemiro. It is a very difficult decision for ZZ. Taking the past game's rigor and current fitness level into considerations it is going to be Modric, Casemiro and Kroos in the middle. James and Valverde will be on the bench. And Isco will start in the attack.
As Asensio has been injured, Bale and Hazard have just recovered, both would not start. After several injuries and returns it will be Benzema, Vazquez and Isco to start. And Bale, Jovic and Vinicius should be on the bench.
So the formation would be 4 3 2 1, with Isco and Vazquez behind Benzema.
So the final starting 11 will be:
