Coach Comments:

• Nothing specific

Other Comments:

• The team is upbeat after the great win of Supercopa.
• Valverde is suspended due to red card from Supercopa. And will have one game suspension.

Squad Updates:

This is a crucial game for the La liga title race.

In the goal Courtois will start, having got several good games in the past, things look definitely very positive for him and Real Madrid.


Ramos is not available due to injury, so Militao and Varane should be seen in the starting 11 and as Marcelo had a muscular injury and just returned he was a bit scrappy and should not make into the starting line up. So Mendy, Militao, Varane and Carvajal will start. Defence has been in good form and is expected to prevent the occasional errors those have led to the goals in the past games.

All the four super mid-fielders are doing great, Modric, Kroos, Valverde and Casemiro. And now Isco is added to that, there are 5 options available as starters, a very difficult decision for ZZ. Valverde is suspended due to red card. Taking the past game's rigor and current fitness level into considerations it is going to be Casemiro, Kroos and Modric in the middle. And Isco might start in the attack.

As Hazard and Benzema have been injured and now Jovic is added to it, Bale, Vinicius and Rodrygo are the go to options. So, Bale, Isco and Rodrygo should start in absence of Benzema and Jovic. And will have Vinicius, James and Lucas Vazquez as substitutes depending on the work rate of others.

Update: As Bale is not fit and Benzema is fit at the last moment, he should replace Bale.

So the final starting 11 will be:

Final update: Benzema replaces Bale after the squad is released for the match.

• 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. With Varane back playing regularly we will have him in the starting 11 and as Marcelo has a muscular injury he should miss and Mendy has a red card so Nacho should start. Odriozola played during the mid-week game in Champions league and so it provided much needed rest to Carvajal. So Nacho, 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, having got some rest with Areola playing one game, things look definitely positive.

• Bale will play and there might be several experiments.

Squad Updates:

This is a crucial game for preparation for next few games, with all the teams neck to neck. As Marcelo is injured and Mendy is red carded for La Liga and will miss the next game, he should certainly start. Ramos might get some rest, as this match is of less importance and so should Varane. So Mendy, Nacho, Militao and Odriozola will start. This will give game time to all and provide options for experiment.

In the goal Areola will start, and Courtois will rest for next matches.

All the four super mid-fielders are doing great, Modric, Kroos, Valverde and Casemiro. This game might give ZZ to provide rest to Casemiro and start Modric, Isco and Valverde. And have Casemiro and Kroos as substitute.

As Lucas Vazquez and James have been injured and Rodrygo should start on right but its a good chance to give Brahim Diaz a chance. So, Vinicius, Jovic and Brahim should start. and will have Bale, Rodrygo and Benzema as substitutes depending on the work rate.
