For this final day of La Liga, Real Madrid welcomes Athletic Bilbao (a match to follow with live commentary on French Football Weekly from 9 p.m.), a match almost for nothing. Indeed, whatever the result, the Merengue will not move from second place. Only the Basques can hope for a huge combination of circumstances to secure a qualifying place for the Conference League.
Alvaro Arbeloa uses a 4-4-2 where Mbappé and Gonzalo Garcia are associated up front. The young Thiago Pitarch will be in the middle with Bellingham. Mastantuono will be placed as a right midfielder and on the other side there will be Valverde. Ernesto Valverde bets on a 4-2-3-1. Unai Simon leaves his place to Padilla so that he can have his first appearance of the season in La Liga. Nico Williams is placed on the right wing and will have to feed Guruzeta with good ball. Adama celebrates his second start in a row.
The official compositions:
Real Madrid : Courtois – Carvajal, Asencio, Alaba, Carreras – Mastantuono, Thiago, Bellingham, Valverde – Gonzalo, Mbappé
Athletic Bilbao: Padilla – Vivian, Yeray, Paredes, Adama – Jauraigar, Galarreta – Williams, Unai G, Navarro – Guruzeta
