Real Madrid will lock horns with Osasuna on Saturday evening as they look to earn a win at home in La Liga. Los Blancos managed to secure a narrow 1-0 victory over Benfica in the UEFA Champions League recently, which should give them some momentum ahead of this clash.
Alvaro Arbeloa will set his players up in a 4-4-2 formation and is expected to make one change to his first team for this game. Gonzalo Garcia could play from the start of this game, while Vinicius Junior gets a rest on the bench.
4-4-2 Real Madrid Predicted Lineup To Face Osasuna
Defence
Thibaut Courtois will feature in between the sticks for Los Blancos after keeping a clean sheet in his last league appearance. Dean Huijsen will operate alongside Antonio Rudiger at the centre of the Real Madrid backline as they look to keep a good shape on the defensive end of the field.
Trent Alexander-Arnold will try to prove his worth as the right-back, while Alvaro Carreras looks to put in a good performance as the left-back. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to join in on the attack.
Dani Carvajal and Fran Garcia will provide cover for the full-back positions on the bench.
Midfield
Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni will operate as the holding midfielders for Los Blancos as they focus on establishing their superiority over the opposition at the centre of the park.
Arda Guler will get a chance to shine as the left-winger, while Federico Valverde hopes to produce another hard-working performance on the right flank. Both of them would try to make some overlapping runs out on the flanks.
Brahim Diaz and Dani Ceballos will make up the numbers on the bench as they await their chance to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if needed.
Attack
Kylian Mbappe and Gonzalo Garcia will lead the line for the Madrid giants in the final third. Both of them will try to get in behind the opponent’s backline at every chance they can get.
Vinicius Jr. will get a rest on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the latter stages of the game if Los Blancos are in need of a goal by then.
