Real Madrid faces Las Palmas this Wednesday for the 7th day of La Liga (7 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the Madrid club.
The defeat in the Madrid derby against Atlético (1-3) went down very badly in the Real Madrid environment. Carlo Ancelotti did not escape criticism after this unexpected setback. “ I am a calm person, with a certain ability to assess situations. But questioning a team that has won six out of seven games this season… that seems like a stretch to me. (…) You could give me a summary of all the ones that came across me, nothing bothers me. It’s my job, as I said before. It’s not true that I don’t dare leave Modric and Kroos on the bench. Here, all matches are important. If I had to respond to all the reviews…I would spend a lot of time here“, he blurted.
In question, the choices of the Italian technician, who had preferred to leave several historic executives short of form in his starting eleven (Kroos, Modric) while doing without a professional center forward to align Jude Bellingham very high.
If Ancelotti should not change his tactical animation, his starting XI should be considerably remodeled. In great difficulty against the Colchoneros, certain executives like Modric or Alaba could be left to rest. Ferland Mendy is expected in the starting lineup, while Vinicius, this time well operational, should allow Bellingham to regain its role lower down.
The expected line-up for Real Madrid : Kepa, Vazquez, Rüdiger, Nacho, Mendy, Tchouaméni, Kroos, Camavinga, Bellingham, Vinicius, Rodrygo.
