📋 Team News: Real Madrid

Vinicius Junior (Biceps femoris muscle injury), Arda Güler (Meniscus Damage), Thibaut Courtois (Ruptured cruciate ligament) and Éder Militão (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will be missing for Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti.

It looks as if Los Blancos will probably kick off with a 4-1-2-1-2 system, utilising Kepa Arrizabalaga, Daniel Carvajal, Antonio Ruediger, David Alaba, Francisco Garcia, Aurelien Tchouameni, Federico Valverde, Toni Kroos, Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo and Joselu.

Real Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil has to currently contend with reduced team options. Martín Merquelanz (Knee Injury) and André Silva (Hamstring Injury) miss out here.
