According to Marca, Real Madrid’s French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga is not expected to start against Barça this Saturday.
This Saturday, FC Barcelona will host Real Madrid at 4:15 p.m. at the Montjuic stadium for the long-awaited Clasico. A shock that promises to be hot given the stakes. Indeed, the Merengue, leaders of La Liga, are only one step ahead of their Catalan rivals, third behind Girona.
According to Marca, Jude Bellingham should be lined up from the start to play his first match against the rival. The versatile English midfielder was hit in the adductors against Braga (1-2), this Tuesday in the Champions League, before confirming his presence this Thursday, at the microphone of Teleporte.
Camavinga and Modric left behind
According to the Madrid media, Carlo Ancelotti would consider starting Aurélien Tchouaméni, alongside Federico Valverde and executive Toni Kroos. The Italian technician would also have decided to trust Ferland Mendy, who should take his place on the left flank of the defense.
It is ultimately Eduardo Camavinga who should bear the brunt of the fierce competition that rages within the Madrid midfield. The former Rennais should start the match on the substitutes’ bench, just like veteran Luka Modric.
