Real Madrid forward Hazard's target to recover in time to face Barcelona on October 25

After yet another injury setback, the onus is on the Belgian to regain fitness before El Clasico.

According to Marca, Eden Hazard's target is to recover before our game against Barcelona on October 25.

The Belgian has been unlucky with injuries since moving to Real Madrid and despite being selected to face Real Valladolid, he missed out on playing because of a muscle problem.

As a matter of fact, he missed both our El Clasico games in the La Liga last season
.
Depending on the Champions League group stage draw, Los Blancos could play some matches right before facing the Catalans - providing Hazard with the perfect opportunity to sharpen his skills.

Of course, it all depends on whether or not he will recover on time. Based on his injury record so far, the signs don't look very promising.
