After the seventh day of the Champions League, where Real Madrid thrashed the RB Salzburg, The white team returns to the league competition. This time he travels to Castilian lands to measure Real Valladolid at the José Zorrilla stadium from 9:00 p.m. You know What Atlético de Madrid will have done, his persecutor for the high position of the classification (1-1 against Villarreal), and remains pending what Barcelona can do against Valenciain the penultimate game that closes this day (the match between Alavés and Celta, Monday, 9:00 p.m., will be the one that closes the date 21 of the league championship).
For this meeting, Carlo Ancelotti will continue to count on Vinicius who, in that way, will close his punishment of two matches without playing after being expelled before Valencia. The Brazilian continues with his Guadiana Week: He did not play against Las Palmas, he did before the Austrians of Salzburg, he will not do it against Valladolid and will not do so on the last European day against Brest.
Brahim, Titular
In that way, The white attack will be composed of Brahim, that returns to ownership after doing so at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium against Las Palmas, Bellingham, which will be the link between the two pivots and the attack. With Rodrygo entering the left wing, and Mbappé above. These last two arrive in a formidable state of form. The Brazilian adds five goals throughout this January, precisely half of those that have been since last August (Rodrygo has a dozen so many). The same is Mbappé, who also adds five goals in the first month of the year, and is on the hunt for Lewandowski for being the Pichichi of the competition.
Asencio, lateral
Was Lucas Vázquez, Once his discomforts were nothing more than a scarebut he won't play. Valverde leaves the demarcation of the right side, going on to occupy a position in the center of the field. Because the chosen one for that position has been Asencioin a test to know how it yields to the lime line. In this way, The white defense is completed Rüdiger (The German needs to rest like eating: a whole game has barely lost, the cup against the mining sports, and minutes against Espanyol and Salzburg, a total of 187 minutes in total), Tchouameni and a Fran García who also returns to eleven by Mendy, headline in Champions.
-That movement It makes three players for two positions: one will be for Fede Valverde, the wildcard man for Carlo Ancelotti, so between Ceballos and Modric the other position was disputed. And Dani will play. The Sevillian started with advantage, having played the last meetings at a more than remarkable level.
