Kylian Mbappé has a good opportunity to find the net again this Sunday afternoon (6:30 p.m.) with Real Madrid, on the Leganés pitch, in the southern suburbs of the Spanish capital, for the 14th day of La Liga. The Merengues number 9 has one goal and one assist in his last seven matches with the Merengues in all competitions. It is unworthy of such a global phenomenon who plays all of his team’s matches in full or almost.
Remaining in Madrid during the international window because he was not called up to the French team by Didier Deschamps, Mbappé seems in great physical shape. He made his teammates miserable during the last training sessions. He is once again associated with Vinicius and Jude Bellingham in the offensive sector, but also with Arda Güler. Rodrygo is in fact unavailable, like David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, Lucas Vazquez and Aurélien Tchouameni.
Bellingham in support of Mbappé
To see if Carlo Ancelotti opted for a 4-4-2 diamond with Bellingham in 10 behind the two offensive cracks of Real, or if the Merengues evolve in 4-2-3-1, always with the English midfielder in 10 behind better scorer in the history of PSG, and with Arda Güler on the right wing. Federico Valverde also finds himself on the right side due to absences and Raul Asencio, 21, is aligned from entry to hinge. Luka Modric and Brahim Diaz are on the bench.
The reigning Spanish champion has the opportunity to come back to within four points of Barça, a leader who was hung up in Vigo on Saturday evening (2-2). Leganés, 14th in the ranking, is led by Sébastien Haller, Munir El Haddadi and Yvan Neyou.
The starting lineup: Courtois – Valverde, Asencio, Rüdiger, Fran Garcia – Ceballos, Camavinga, Güler – Bellingham – Mbappé, Vinicius.
