Carlo Ancelotti could shift Eder Militao to the right to strengthen Real Madrid’s defense before the Clasico against Barça. A key tactical choice for this La Liga clash.
As the Clasico approaches this Saturday, Carlo Ancelotti seems ready to surprise with a new strategy for the clash between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. While the two Spanish clubs have just ignited the European scene with their spectacular victories, Ancelotti could shift Eder Militao to the right side to solidify the defense, facing the prolonged absence of Carvajal. This option would strengthen a defense already deprived of Thibaut Courtois, and Militao would replace Lucas Vazquez, considered too fragile for this big meeting.

According to journalist Edu Aguirre of El Chiringuito, this defensive configuration would push Aurélien Tchouaméni into the central axis with Rüdiger, while Ancelotti would rely on a reinforced midfielder with Camavinga, Modric, Valverde and Bellingham. Up front, the explosive duo Mbappé-Vinicius would try to break through the Barcelona defense. Real Madrid, who are three points behind their Catalan rival in La Liga, seem ready to do anything for this expected shock at the Santiago Bernabeu.
