Galatasaray Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Galatasaray and away from home, currently they are above Real on the leader-board in the Champions league and Madrid are at the bottom. They have the same results and same points but better goal difference as of now.

They have had  a bad start but have won the last league match to boost their confidence.




First I would like to see the 

Injury list:
  1. Asensio
  2. Lucas Vazquez
  3. Modric
  4. Bale
Suspended:

1.     None 

Just recovered:
  1. Nacho
  2. Marcelo
  3. Kroos
  4. Raphael Varane
  5. Valverde
  6. Mendy

Practiced:

All except the injured lot.

Skipped Practice:

None

Coach Comments:
  • Zidane : Zidane: "Modric, Bale and Lucas are not available."
  • "We've got a chance tomorrow to prove ourselves and that's what we are going to try and do."
Squad Updates:


    This is a do or die game, with the defensive lapses of the past, there will be no experiments. No non-sense four, Marcelo, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal will be certain to start.

    In the goal Courtois is not great and Areola is playing really well. So, he should start but ZZ will start with Courtois.

    As there is no Modric in the midfield, it is going to be Casemiro, Kroos and Valverde. Isco and James are now available but have not been great in the last match, they have been slow and lacked creativity hence will start from the bench.

    As Bale and Vazquez are injured, Hazard, Benzema and Vinicius should start. And will have Rodrygo or Brahim and Jovic as substitutes for Vinicius and Benzema, on a as need be basis.


    So the final starting 11 will be:

There is too much controversy involving Bale, and ZZ would like to calm things down and might start Bale ahead of Rodrygo, given Rodrygo has joined the team late. Squad Updates: This is a crucial game for La Liga title race, with all the teams neck to neck. With Marcelo practicing more than Mendy he should start. So Marcelo, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal will start, more so with...
