Out due to illness
Lunin (illness) was not included in the squad for Thursday's clash against Real Oviedo due to illness, according to the club.
Analysis: Lunin's absence has a limited impact on Real Madrid's lineup given Thibaut Courtois's recent return to the squad, with the Belgian expected to reclaim his starting role between the posts. No further details have been provided on the severity of the viral infection, leaving his availability for upcoming fixtures uncertain.
Dealing with illness
Lunin (illness) did not train Wednesday due to a viral infection and is unlikely to feature in Thursday's clash against Real Oviedo, according to the club.
Analysis: Lunin's absence from the final training session raises doubts about his availability for Thursday's match. With Thibaut Courtois having returned to the squad for Sunday's Clasico against Barcelona, his potential absence should have a limited impact on the starting lineup, as the Belgian goalkeeper is expected to reclaim his role between the posts.
Three saves in 2-0 win
Lunin recorded three saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Espanyol.
Analysis: Lunin made three saves as he helped Real Madrid to a 2-0 win, which keeps them in the title race for one more week. This was the keeper's sixth La Liga start of the year and his first clean sheet in that time. It is the fourth game in a row where he has made at least three saves.
Makes three saves, allows one
Lunin registered three saves and allowed one goal in Friday's 1-1 draw against Betis.
Analysis: Lunin made some good stops throughout the game, but there was nothing he could have done on the goal scored by Hector Bellerin. Considering how the game unfolded, Real Madrid could've very well lost hadn't it been for Lunin's impressive display. The Ukrainian goalkeeper should remain as the No. 1 option between the posts as long as Thibaut Courtois (quadriceps) remains out.
Concedes once Tuesday
Lunin made four saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 2-1 victory versus Deportivo Alaves.
Analysis: Lunin was well on his way to keeping his first clean sheet of the season Tuesday, but a late Toni Martinez goal took that away. He still earned the victory though, saving four shots in the home victory. He faces a more difficult matchup Friday at Betis, a side which has scored 48 goals through 32 matches this season.
