Real Madrid Predicted Starting Lineup vs. Mallorca
No Changes Expected from Ancelotti
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is expected to name an unchanged side from the one that started in the UEFA Super Cup for Sunday's La Liga opener against Mallorca.
The Italian coach was pleased with his team's performance in Helsinki, where they beat Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0, and sees no reason to make any alterations.
Possible Starting XI
Here is the possible starting lineup for Real Madrid against Mallorca:
- Goalkeeper: Thibaut Courtois
- Defenders: Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, David Alaba, Ferland Mendy
- Midfielders: Casemiro, Toni Kroos, Luka Modric
- Forwards: Federico Valverde, Karim Benzema, Vinicius Jr.
The only change from the team that started in the UEFA Super Cup is the return of Vinicius Jr., who missed that game due to suspension.
Key Players to Watch
Vinicius Jr. will be the key player to watch for Real Madrid. The Brazilian winger is in excellent form and will be looking to start the new season with a bang.
Karim Benzema is another player to watch. The French striker is Real Madrid's captain and talisman, and he will be looking to continue his excellent scoring form from last season.
Prediction
Real Madrid will be confident of beating Mallorca on Sunday. The Spanish champions have a strong squad and are in good form.
Mallorca are a newly promoted side and will be looking to make a good start to the season. However, they are unlikely to be able to match Real Madrid's quality.
Prediction: Real Madrid 3-0 Mallorca
