Bale set to miss first Clasico of the season amid reports Real Madrid star is out for two months

Carlo Ancelotti offered updates on the fitness of both the Wales winger and Eden Hazard ahead of Sunday's visit to Valencia

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti admitted he could not put a time-frame on Gareth Bale's latest injury, as reports suggest the Welsh winger could miss up to two months of action. 

Bale suffered a muscle problem in his right leg during a training session last week and missed both of Madrid's wins over Celta in La Liga and Inter in the Champions League. 

And he now looks set to spend a significant amount of time on the sidelines after playing his way into Ancelotti's plans at the start of the season, meaning he could miss the first Clasico of the season against Barcelona on October 24.
