Leipzig-Real Madrid live: The Merengues lineup without Bellingham

Real’s line-up with an attacking trio

It is without its star Jude Bellingham, victim of a sprained ankle, that Real Madrid faces RB Leipzig in the round of 16 first leg in Germany. While Marca announced a change of system with a mid-four, Carlo Ancelotti simply aligned Brahim Diaz in place of his English midfielder, at number 10 behind Brazilian prodigies Rodrygo and Vinicius.

In defense, in the absence of Antonio Rüdiger (in addition to Eder Militao and David Alaba), Aurélien Tchouaméni is kept in the central hinge. After playing with Dani Carvajal against Girona, this time he is associated with Nacho. Eduardo Camavinga therefore plays in the number 6 position.

The Real Madrid lineup: Lunin – Carvajal, Tchouaméni, Nacho, Mendy – Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos – Diaz Rodrygo, Vinicius.

Leipzig with Simakan but without Lukeba

Failing to be in good shape in the Bundesliga (only one victory in the last six matches), RB Leipzig can nevertheless count on its duo of offensive cracks, Loïs Openda and Benjamin Sesko who never stop shaking the nets . Xavi Simons is present to make differences offensively. In defense, Mohamed Simakan starts in the central hinge, while Castello Lukeba and El Chadaille Bitshiabu are on the bench.
