The mega duel will take place in just under an hour (9 p.m., live on Canal+): Salzburg has to face Champions League defending champion Real Madrid for the first time! With this starting eleven, the Bulls want to create a sensation in the penultimate round of the league phase.
Tonight (9 p.m., in the Sport24 live ticker), perhaps the most difficult task in the club’s history awaits runner-up RB Salzburg: in the legendary Bernabéu Stadium they will face none other than Champions League defending champions Real Madrid!
Thomas Letsch is about to be baptized in the premier class and is relying on a 4-4-2 system in the fight for international status. As announced, keeper Janis Blaswich leads Salzburg onto the field. In defense, Amar Dedić, Samson Baidoo, Hendry Blank and Aleksa Terzić should make the miracle possible – and stop Vinícius Jr.! Nene and Adam Daghim storm up front, as new signing Karim Onisiwo cannot yet take part in the Champions League due to not being eligible to play.
Vinícius back – Alaba on the bench
-On the other hand, Real coach Carlo Ancelotti brings almost the expected starting eleven. Due to the absences of Carvajal and Vázquez, Fede Valverde moves to the right side of defense. Luka Modrić and Dani Ceballos take over the control center in midfield. Vinícius Jr. returns to the starting eleven, but Brahim Díaz has to go to the bench. Ferland Mendy defends on the left, displacing Fran García again. After his comeback on Sunday, Alaba has to sit on the bench for the time being.
