Real Madrid will lock horns with Braga at the Municipal Stadium of Braga this Tuesday night as they try to collect maximum points from this UEFA Champions League clash on the road. Los Blancos were held to a 1-1 draw away at Sevilla recently, so they would be eager to get back to winning ways in this midweek game.
Carlo Ancelotti will once again set his team up in a 4-3-1-2 formation and could be inclined to make a couple of changes to his first XI. Both Nacho and Eduardo Camavinga are expected to play from the start of this Champions League game in midweek.
4-3-1-2 Real Madrid Predicted Lineup To Face Braga
Defence
Kepa Arrizabalaga will feature in between the sticks for Los Blancos after shipping in one goal in his last league outing. Nacho will function alongside Antonio Rudiger at the centre of Ancelotti’s defence as they look to keep the Braga attackers quiet during the game.
Dani Carvajal will fill in as the right-back while Eduardo Camavinga hopes to impress on the other flank as the left-back. Ancelotti will instruct them to be adventurous with their runs out in the wide areas.
Fran Garcia and Lucas Vazquez will provide cover for the full-back positions on the bench.
Midfield
Toni Kroos, Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde will anchor the midfield for Los Blancos as they try to establish their dominance at the centre of the park.
Jude Bellingham will get a chance to impress in the number ten position after failing to score in his last outing. He would be eager to make a difference for Real Madrid by finding the back of the net in midweek.
Luka Modric will have to be content with a place on the bench as he waits for his chance to shine in the second half if needed.
Attack
Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo will spearhead Ancelotti’s attack up top. Both of them need to combine well if they want to threaten the opposition goal during the 90 minutes.
Joselu will be named on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the final quarter of the contest if Los Blancos are in need of a goal by then.
