Kosovar Asllani has scored twelve goals in 17 league games for Real Madrid this season.
The team is in the top tier of the table, but when table three Real Madrid meets four Atético Madrid here on Sunday, Asllani is not in the guests' line-up.
Lindahl and Jakobsson in play
According to information to SVT Sport, it is injury concerns that force Asllani to be out of the match squad this round.
It should not be about something serious, but the Swede may also miss next weekend's league meeting with Levante.
Hedvig Lindahl stands between Atlético Madrid's posts while Sofia Jakobsson started the match in visiting Real Madrid's midfield.
The match is in progress and is still goalless.
