Getafe Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

The upcoming match is against Getafe away from home in the Coliseum Alfonso Perez in the La Liga match day 33. The last Real Madrid game was against Liverpool which was a good defensive game with several regulars unavailable, it was a good draw.

The team rating for the match against Liverpool can be found here: Team Rating

Currently Real are a recovering side, with few regulars out but need to win at any cost to be alive in the title race. 

Earlier the home game was a 2-0 Win for Real. 

Looking at the

Injury list:
  1. Ramos
  2. Lucas Vazquez
Suspended:
  1. Nacho
  2. Casemiro

Just recovered:

  1. Valverde
  2. Varane
  3. Odriozola
  4. Hazard
  5. Carvajal

Practiced:

The rest of the players are available for selection. 

Skipped Practice:
  • None
Coach Comments:
  • Zidane: "We have known how to suffer. It was normal in a quarter-final match. We deserved to go round, but we knew we were going to suffer. We controlled the game well, we have been supportive and I am happy for the boys." 
Other Comments:
  • Ferland Mendy: "We came here to win but we drew and qualified, so we're happy." 
Squad Updates:



This will be the Forty third game of the season and Real have been inconsistent in the matches and so has been the results, they have had 26 wins, 8 Draws and 8 losses. In the last few games except the last three, the performance has been poor especially in attack and with this ailing team it is not making the run any easier.

Getafe is an attacking side and are good in the defense, so Real will need to be careful in both departments and be ready for their counters.

In the goal Courtois will start, he has been in a good form. He has supported the defense very well but has not received the same support back from the team and more so with so many changes owing to the injuries in defense.

Mendy should start on the left. As Ramos is out injured and Nacho is suspended Militao and Varane should start, it is expected that Varane will recover from COVID. Carvajal is now back and might play. So Mendy, Varane, Militao and Odriozola should start. Carvajal, Marcelo and Chust should be available as substitutes.

Modric has been a bit off pace in the last few games but was in control and the performance in the last few games have been great. Same goes with Kroos, who has been exceptional. So, Kroos and Modric should start. As Casemiro is suspended due to Red card, he will be replaced by Valverde. Isco, Arribas and Blanco should start from the bench. 

The forwards have been poor all season except, they have been wasting many chances in front of the goal.  Hazard is possibly back but might not start and Vinicius should start on the left, being good in the last three games. With Asensio playing well, he should get his chance ahead of Rodrygo. And Benzema should start upfront.  

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

The probable substitutions will be: 

Vinicius > Hazard
Modric > Isco
Asensio > Rodrygo
Kroos > Marcelo
Benzema > Mariano

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:

Varane OUT <> Chust IN
Mendy OUT <> Marcelo IN

Valencia Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

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. Skipped Practice: None Coach Comments: Nothing specific Other Comments: With the rest given to Bale, it is time for him to start. 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...

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...
