📰 Team News: Real Madrid
Ferland Mendy (Muscle injury), Daniel Carvajal (Cruciate ligament tear) and Éder Militão (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be available for Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti.
In our view, Los Blancos should use a 4-2-3-1 formation this time, beginning the first half with Thibaut Courtois, Lucas Vazquez, Raul Asencio, Antonio Ruediger, David Alaba, Federico Valverde, Aurelien Tchouameni, Rodrygo, Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe.
🗞️ Team News: Arsenal
From our viewpoint, The Gunners seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 system, starting the game with David Raya, Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, Jakub Kiwior, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Martin Oedegaard, Thomas Partey, Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Mikel Merino and Gabriel Martinelli.
⚡ Prediction
We’re of the opinion that Arsenal should get enough chances to put a goal past this Real Madrid outfit, but it possibly won’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We think that it’s going to be both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Real Madrid by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Let’s just see how this one goes.
