Real Madrid will welcome Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium this Wednesday evening as they try to collect maximum points at home in La Liga. Los Blancos suffered a disappointing 3-1 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid in the Madrid derby recently which has halted their momentum ahead of this game.
Carlo Ancelotti will opt for a 4-4-2 formation once again and could keep changes to a minimum for this game. Hence, we can expect to see Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo to lead the line for the Madrid giants up top.
4-4-2 Real Madrid Predicted Lineup To Face Las Palmas
Defence
Kepa Arrizabalaga will feature in between the sticks for Real Madrid after conceding three goals in his last appearance. David Alaba will continue to play alongside Antonio Rudiger at the centre of Ancelotti’s defence as they try to keep things solid at the back during the game.
Lucas Vazquez will once again fill in as the right-back while Fran Garcia hopes to catch the eye on the other flank as the left-back. Both of them will get the freedom to express themselves in the opponent’s half and offer adequate support to the front players.
Nacho will provide cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Eduardo Camavinga will anchor the midfield for Los Blancos while Toni Kroos and Federico Valverde play just ahead of him as the box-to-box midfielders.
Luka Modric will be given the freedom to pull the strings from the number ten position. He will have to carry most of the creative burden for the home team in the final third.
Aurelien Tchouameni will be named on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the second half if Ancelotti decides to call upon his services.
Attack
As mentioned earlier, Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo will lead the charge for the Madrid outfit up top. Both of them need to link-up with each other well so that they can do enough damage for Real Madrid to win this midweek clash at the Bernabeu.
Joselu will be available for selection on the bench as he awaits his chance to influence the game in the final quarter of the game if needed.
