Real Madrid Vs Osasuna: The Starting 11



The upcoming match is against the Osasuna at home, currently they are 10th on the leader-board and Madrid on 3rd.




The point to note is Osasuna is still unbeaten this season.



First I would like to see the injury list:


1.     Asensio
2.     Mendy

Suspended:

1.     None

Just recovered:

1.     Marcelo
2.     Isco
3.     Modric

Practiced:

All except the injured lot.

Skipped Practice:

None

Coach Comments:
  •  Players need to be fully fit and take enough training sessions

  



Other Comments:
  •  Bale rested for Atletico clash this weekend
  • Too early for Marcelo, Isco and Modric to start


So, there are going to be at least two changes as Bale and Mendy are not in the squad.

As Mendy is injured, this would have the same Mendy replaced by Nacho. Rest of the defence will remain the same. Though I would have liked Odriozola to start in place of Carvajal, but Zidane probably wont gamble, given the defence had just performed the best in the last match.

Mid-field will start with Casemiro and Valverde will substitute him in the second half to keep him ready and give some rest for next match.

So mid-field will have Kroos, Casemiro and James.

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

So the effective line up should be:
