The upcoming match is against Huesca away from home in the Estadio El Alcoraz in the La Liga match day 22. The last Real Madrid game was against Levante which was a Shameful result after bad play and poor referring decisions.

These matches which should be easy have been tough for Real, now that Atletico are 10 points ahead and Barcelona ahead as well its a no brainer that Real cannot falter again.

We have already won at home against Huesca this season 4-1.

Squad Updates:

This will be the Twenty nineth game of the season and Real have been really inconsistent in their performances, they have had 15 wins, 5 Draws and 8 losses. In the last few matches the performance has dipped to the lowest of the season.

Huesca had also been inconsistent but have won their last game away.

In the goal Courtois will start, he has been in a decent form. He has supported the defense really well but has not got the return favor from the team.

Mendy should start on the left. Ramos and Varane will start as the center backs. Carvajal should be fit by this week's game he should start on the right. So Mendy, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal should start. With the amount of errors leading to goal and penalty conceded real is really weak in this department.

Modric and Kroos have been fine, Casemiro has not been great but without any depth he is the only option. So, Kroos, Casemiro and Modric should start. Isco, Valverde and few youth squad members should start from the bench.

The forwards have been poor all season, they have been spurning several chances in front of the goal. With some improvements in the last game the forwards will look for continuity. Hazard should start on the left, though he has some discomfort and did not train in the first session. Asensio should start on the Right and Benzema upfront. So, Vinicius, Lucas Vazquez and Mariano should start from the bench.

As there are 5 substitutions available, ZZ should think for more rotations in the second half especially taking into consideration the team's fitness.

The probable substitutions will be:

Asensio > Lucas Vazquez

Modric > Blanco/Arribas

Kroos > Isco

Benzema > Mariano

Hazard > Vinicius

So the formation would be 4 3 3.

The most probable kit to be used for the game will be the home kit!!!

So the final starting 11 will be:

Vinicius IN <> Hazard OUT

Nacho IN <> Ramos OUT

Odriozola IN <> Carvajal OUT

Real Madrid vs Manchester City: The Starting 11

Before going into the next Match I will rate the performance of players in the last game vs Levante. Benzema: 3/10, Only misses and bad finishes, final third game play missing. Hazard: 4/10, created a few chances, missed a sure 1 on 1 chance, got injured again Isco: 5/10, too much 1-2 passes and final third game play missing, need to release quicker. Good distribution outside the box. Modric: 7/10, did his bit, created ample chances, could have pressed better for the goal, but was surely a wonder strike Casemiro: 8/10, did all he was supposed to do, took a yellow when required, made his presence felt in the attack as well, could have headed it home but missed. Kroos: 6/10, good first half, lacked the precision in the second half and after the goal seemed lost. Seemed he was out of gas. Marcelo: 7/10, did very well to be honest, some defensive lapses were there but with the amount of offensive positioning it is expected. Need to get better in crossing than this but hardly any

Real Betis Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

Before going into the next match I will rate the performance of players in the last game vs Barcelona in the El Clasico. Benzema: 5/10, Poor game that has very less involvement, only misses and bad finishes, final third game play was better than previous game but still not up to the mark. Vinicius: 9/10, Became the youngest to score in the El Clasico, had several good plays. The early yellow could have made him a little cautious but played his heart out and recovered 3-4 balls for the team. Isco: 8.5/10, Good game and a few good runs, a great shot at goal which was stopped by the keeper. He was good in distribution as well, could have taken a few more chances but was a bit of communication problem with Marcelo. Kroos: 8/10, Seemed the one to orchestrate the game. Great assist in the first goal and maintained composure throughout the game, even under pressure, coordinated well with attack and defence really well. Casemiro: 8.5/10, What a game! With an assist or goal he would hav
