The Belgian will miss Real Madrid's Champions League match against Celtic on Wednesday

Eden Hazard will not be among the players that Carlo Ancelotti can count on against Celtic on Wednesday. The Belgian winger has not trained with the rest of his teammates due to a muscular overload and will have to sit out his team's final group stage match in the UCL. The latest setback is especially problematic because the Belgian national team still very much counts on the little attacking midfielder to contribute in the World Cup.

Hazard, who participated in the final stretch of the game against Leipzig, has played in five of the 18 Los Blancos games - and has mostly been an unused sub. This will be the first game that Hazard has been forced to miss this season, one that will increase the unpleasant tally to 70 since he arrived at Real Madrid. He was injured for 66 and ill for another four of those.

Ancelotti will also be without Aurelien Tchouameni and Karim Benzema for the clash with the champions of Scotland on Wednesday night.
