Real Madrid Vs Club Brugge The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Club Brugge at home, currently they are 2nd on the leader-board in Champion's league and Madrid are at the bottom. They are at the top of the Belgian league.



The point to note is Club Brugge is still undefeated this season across all competitions.

First I would like to see the 

Injury list:

1.     Asensio
2.     Mendy

Suspended:

1.     None (Nacho and Ramos return from suspension in Champion's league)

Just recovered:

1.     Marcelo (Trained alone)
2.     Isco (no game time yet)
3.     Modric (Played 20+ minutes)

Practiced:

All except the injured lot.

Skipped Practice:

None

Coach Comments:
  • Zidane asked to be patient with Hazard
Other Comments:
  • Too early for Marcelo, Isco and Modric to start but should be seen as subs
As Mendy is injured and Marcelo has just returned with one practice session with the team under his belt, this could have Nacho in the starting line up. Rest of the defence will remain the same.
So, it will be either Nacho, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal. 

In the goal Courtois is favorite but Areola might as well get a game, providing some rest to Courtois.

As Isco and Modric are clear choices for substitution having just recovered from injury.
So, mid-field will have Kroos, Casemiro and James. If Madrid leads Casemiro will be subbed by Valverde.

Hazard, Benzema and Bale should start. And will have Vinicius and Jovic as substitutes for Hazard and Benzema.

So the effective line up should be:

    


Update: No Bale or James in the Squad

With the Squad news:



So the final starting 11 will be:
