Real Madrid playmaker Kaka could miss the Saturday clash against Almeria because of a groin strain.

The 27-year-old, who caught the eye in the 'El Clasico' defeat to Barcelona, has been undergoing a special programme of physiotherapy.

The Brazilian star is now rated as a doubt for the visit of Almeria as Los Blancos look to return to winning ways.

He has scored four goals and provided four assists in 17 appearances this season.
