Will the Merengues remain on the throne? At 6:30 p.m., Real Madrid welcomes Girona for the 24th day of LaLiga and the two teams are fighting for first place. The Madrilenians, who remain in 17 league matches without defeat, have 58 points while the Blanquivermells, who have not lost any of their last 15 matches in the elite, have 56 units and therefore two lengths behind their opponent in the day. The meeting can be followed live with commentary on French Football Weekly from 6:30 p.m.
For this match, Carlo Ancelotti still faces a slaughter in defense since Courtois, Militao, Alaba, Rüdiger and Nacho are injured. The Italian technician therefore starts the meeting without a trained central defender and aligns the new Tchouaméni-Carvajal hinge. Lucas Vazquez therefore starts on the right side while Vinicius, who was withdrawn from the last match, resumes his place on the front of the attack alongside Rodrygo. Opposite, Michel still cannot count on David Lopez and faces the suspensions of Blind and Herrera, so Juanpe and Martin replace them in central defense and midfield while Portu will evolve as a playmaker behind Dovbyk, back from injury.
Team compositions:
Real Madrid : Lunin – Vazquez, Carvajal, Tchouaméni, F.Mendy – Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos – Bellingham – Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr
Girona: Gazzaniga – Couto, Garcia, Juanpe, Gutierrez – Martin, A.Garcia – Tsygankov, Portu, Savio – Dovbyk
