The decision to omit the Brazil international comes amid continued speculation about the wantaway winger's future, with Robinho insisting on Friday that negotiations with Chelsea were ongoing.
Robinho declared more than a week ago that he wanted to leave Madrid and join Chelsea, but Madrid coach Bernd Schuster still included the 24-year-old in his squad for last Sunday's Supercopa second leg against Valencia, although did not play him.
Madrid insist they do not want Robinho to leave but have said they will not keep a player at the Bernabeu against their will.
Earlier, Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has reiterated his belief that Robinho will be staying in the Spanish capital.
"He's going to stay here, I'm saying that," the Real supreme told ABC.

"How is it feel when caledron itself opened his big mouth to bring ronaldo and unsettled him? Perhaps, now you should understand the feelings when Robinho keen to leave. Dont treat him like a slave, come on Real Madrid and I believe Blatter will support my statement as well. "
