Real Madrid Vs Real Sociedad: The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Real Sociedad at home, currently they are at 5th and Real are 2nd on the leader-board. With equal points with Barcelona Madrid is not going to take any risks this time again.



First I would like to see the 

Injury list:
  1. Asensio
  2. James
  3. Lucas Vazquez
  4. Nacho
Suspended:

1.     None 

Just recovered:
  1. Bale
  2. Marcelo
Practiced:

 Nacho is practicing alone.

Skipped Practice:

None

Coach Comments:
  • Nothing specific
Other Comments:
    • Marcelo has recovered in time and might start.
    • 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 the great work over the past few games by the defence.
    In the goal Courtois will start, with clean sheets in the last 5 games, things look definitely positive.

    As Modric has returned early and has got more time to practice before the game with the team, I would prefer him to start. Kroos is in sublime form with two goals and one assist with the national team and Valverde would require some rest, given he joined the team slightly late.So, it is going to be Casemiro, Kroos and Modric. Isco will be seen as a substitute for Kroos and Valverde for Modric or Casemiro depending on the score line.

    As Lucas Vazquez and James have been injured and Rodrygo joined slightly late it is tough to say if they will start. So, Hazard, Benzema and Bale should start. And will have Vinicius, Rodrygo and Jovic as substitutes depending on the work rate.


    So the final starting 11 will be:

    The upcoming match is against Eibar away from home in the La liga match day 14.  The last Real Madrid game was against Athletic Bilbao which was great result after a tough fight till the end. The team rating for the match against  Athletic  can be found here:  Team Rating This is one of the important league matches of the season as there is no room at the top.

    The upcoming match is against Valencia away from home, currently they are at 8th and Real are 2nd on the leader-board. With equal points with Barcelona  Madrid is not going to take any risks this time again. First I would like to see the  Injury list : Asensio Lucas Vazquez Hazard Marcelo Suspended : 1.   Mendy   Just recovered: Nacho, James Practiced: Asensio, Hazard and Lucas Vázquez continue with their recovery processes. James combined work in the gym and out on the pitch. Bale is back with the team.

Squad Updates: This is a crucial game for La Liga title race, with all the teams neck to neck.

    PSG Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

    The upcoming match is against the PSG in Paris, they too have several injury and form worries themselves. Current Squad Declared with Uefa: https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/season=2020/clubs/club=50051/squad/ (Source: Uefa.com) First I would like to see the  injury list : Isco Modric Asensio Valverde Marcelo Suspended : Ramos  Nacho Just recovered: Jovic  James Hazard Brahim Diaz Rodrygo Practiced: All except the injured lot. Skipped Practice: None Coach Comments: Hazard to start " BBH Sounds good" Benzema to be the leader without Ramos and Marcelo. So the line up seems Hazard to start on the left but will have a backup in Vinicius. With Bale getting rest in la liga is certain to start on the right and switch to left time to time. James has been playing well and with most of the other mid fielders injures is certain to play behind Benzema. Kroos and Casemiro will control the game in the mid. With the suspens...
