Real Madrid is deprived of its central defenders and even Aurélien Tchouaméni for the derby against Atlético this Sunday evening (9 p.m.). It is Dani Carvajal who is replaced in the central hinge, Eduardo Camavinga being aligned in the number 6 position.
Leader of La Liga with currently one point more than Girona, Real Madrid has the opportunity to make a great move when Atlético comes to the Bernabéu for a derby in the capital counting for the 23rd day of La Liga. Except that Carlo Ancelotti, already deprived of Eder Militao and David Alaba, lost Antonio Rüdiger (slightly injured) and Aurélien Tchouaméni (warned and automatically suspended) Thursday in Getafe.
It was Dani Carvajal who was chosen to play in the central hinge alongside Nacho Fernandez, with Lucas Vazquez taking the right lane. This allows the tenure of Eduardo Camavinga in front of the defense, with Federico Valverde and Toni Kroos at his side.
Bellingham is there
As expected, Jude Bellingham plays in 10 with Rodrygo and Vinicius in front of him. Luka Modric, Brahim Diaz and Joselu are the options on the bench. Andriy Lunin is now number 1 in goals for Real.
Real Madrid starting lineup: Lunin – Vazquez, Carvajal, Nacho, Mendy – Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos – Bellingham – Rodrygo, Vincius.
