Real Madrid will face off against Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena on Tuesday night as they hope to secure all three points away from home in La Liga. Los Blancos managed to earn an impressive 4-2 win over Almeria recently which will keep them in high spirits ahead of this clash.
Carlo Ancelotti will set his team up in a 4-3-3 formation and could make some changes to his first XI for this game. Federico Valverde is expected to play from the start while Toni Kroos drops to the bench.
4-3-3 Real Madrid Predicted Lineup To Face Real Sociedad
Defence
Thibaut Courtois will operate in between the sticks for Los Blancos after shipping in a couple of goals in his last league outing. Eder Militao will resume his defensive partnership with Antonio Rudiger at the heart of Real Madrid’s backline as they try to keep the opposition at bay during the game.
Lucas Vazquez could get another chance to shine as the right-back while Nacho fills in on the other flank as the left-back. Both of them would be eager to make a difference for Los Blancos out in the wide areas.
Eduardo Camavinga will offer cover for the left-back position on the bench.
Midfield
Ancelotti could name a midfield comprised of Luka Modric, Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde as they try to dictate the tempo of the game and orchestrate some promising chances in the opponent’s half.
Dani Ceballos and Toni Kroos will have to settle for a spot on the bench as they wait for their chance to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if required.
Attack
Vinicius Jr. will try to give a good account of himself as the left-sided wide player while Rodrygo looks to catch the eye on the right flank.
Karim Benzema will spearhead Ancelotti’s attack up top. He managed to secure a hattrick in his last league appearance, so his confidence will be sky-high ahead of this clash on the road.
Marco Asensio will have to be content with a place on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the latter stages if Ancelotti decides to call upon his services.
