Real Madrid will welcome Celta Vigo at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium this Saturday night as they focus on collecting all three points at home in La Liga. Los Blancos managed to earn a 2-0 win over Chelsea in midweek which will give them a lot of momentum ahead of this league clash.
Carlo Ancelotti will set his team up in a 4-3-3 formation and could name a strong first XI for this game. We can expect to see Marco Asensio get a chance to play from the start as Karim Benzema is a major doubt for this game.
4-3-3 Real Madrid Predicted Lineup To Face Celta Vigo
Defence
Thibaut Courtois will function in between the sticks for the Madrid outfit after he kept a clean sheet in his last outing. Antonio Rudiger will resume his defensive partnership with Eder Militao at the heart of the Real Madrid defence as they try to keep the opposition at bay this weekend.
Lucas Vazquez will fill in as the right-back while Nacho hopes to catch the eye on the other side as the left-back. Both of them will be given the license to express themselves in the opponent’s half so that they can create some decent chances from the wide areas.
Alvaro Odriozola will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde will make up Ancelotti’s midfield as they try to establish their dominance over the opposition at the centre of the park. They will have to move the ball well if they want to engineer enough chances for Real Madrid to win this contest at the Bernabeu.
Luka Modric and Toni Kroos will be rested on the bench as they wait for their opportunity to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if Ancelotti decides to call upon their services.
Attack
Vinicius Jr. will function as the left-sided wide player while Marco Asensio looks to give a good account of himself as the right-wing. Both of them will be instructed to get in behind the Celta Vigo backline so that they can create problems for them in the final third.
Rodryo could get a chance to lead the charge for Real Madrid up top. He has to figure out a way to threaten the opposition goal.
Karim Benzema will have to pass a late fitness test if he wants to make Ancelotti’s bench this weekend.
