Real Madrid travel to Braga for the 3rd day of the Champions League group stage, this Tuesday (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
This group stage is like a long, quiet river for Real Madrid. Leader of its group with 6 points in two games, the record club for victories in the Champions League negotiated its most difficult match in the best possible way by signing a convincing success in Naples, before the international break (3-2). In this context, the trip to Braga seems largely within the Merengue’s reach. But there is no question for Ancelotti of underestimating the Lusitanian team.
“It’s an opportunity for us, it would be nice to win again. It’s a team that plays well, that likes to control and attack…so defense will be very important. From there we can enjoy the quality we have,” explained the Italian technician. “I think it’s a very important competition for Real Madrid. It’s the one we all love the most (club, players, etc.). It is special and draws attention to that fact, but we must continue to look forward.”
The expected compositions
Braga : Matheus, Vitor Carvalho, Fonte, Oliveira, Marin, Castro, Moutinho, Rony Lopes, Horta, Fernandes, Ruiz.
real Madrid : Kepa, Carvajal, Rüdiger, Nacho, Mendy, Camavinga, Valverde, Modric, Bellingham, Vinicius, Joselu.
