Real Madrid have insisted their two players on-loan at Leganes will not face them.

Marca reports Real Madrid will be facing Leganes in the Copa del Rey for the second year in a row but will not be taking any chances after getting knocked out last year.

So much so that two Los Blancos players on loan at their city rivals - Oscar Rodriguez and Andriy Lunin - will not be able to feature in the cup game to be played at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

This is because Real will be invoking the so-called 'Fear Clause' which is an agreement between two clubs that a loan player cannot face their parent club; executed earlier this season in LaLiga Santander when the two teams met.
