Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane can't guarantee Gareth Bale facing Espanyol.

Although he promised that Los Blancos wouldn't take any risks if Bale isn't 100 percent, he wasn't ruling him out yet.

"We will see tomorrow [how he is]," Zidane said when asked about Bale's availability during Saturday's pre-match press conference.

"It is a strain, so nothing too significant.

"But, as always, when a player has even a small problem then we don't want to risk it.

"As for him playing for his national team [next week], I don't think there will be any issue between Real Madrid and his national team.

"It'll depend on his injury niggles and his state of fitness."
