Real Madrid’s custodian will be Andriy Lunin. Against Celta Vigo, he only had to block one shot and kept the game clean. He would not mind if that episode was shown again. Lucas Vazquez has done a great job as a left-back and is likely to stay.

Since Eder Militao and David Alaba aren’t playing, Antonio Rudiger is still in charge of the defense. Nacho will keep playing center-back because he had a good game. Ferland Mendy, the right back, hasn’t said anything bad, so no change is likely.

In the middle

Once more, Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, and Federico Valverde will be in charge of the middle of the pitch. All three are doing great work for the Whites. They cover a lot of ground, protect well, and make it easy for others to score goals with key passes all the time.

They use Brahim Diaz as an aggressive midfielder, and he does a good job in tight spaces. However, he has a lot more to offer.

Launch an attack

Vinicius Jr. is in charge, and Rodrygo isn’t having the best time, even though he has good numbers. Carlo Ancelotti wouldn’t want to break up the pair, though, because they work well together.
