We take a look at the condition of Real Madrid’s squad a few hours before the decisive match against Atletico Madrid.
For this Champions League round of 16 second leg, Real Madrid travels to the Metropolitano to face their neighbors, Atletico Madrid. Kick-off is at 9:00 PM. The match will be broadcast on Canal+ in France.
First, the latest news is positive for Carlo Ancelotti, who will have Thibaut Courtois and Antonio Rüdiger available. The Belgian has recovered well from the “minor problem” mentioned by his coach after the match against Rayo Vallecano, while the German was suffering from the flu. Both have been training normally since Monday and will be present.
The Great Uncertainty
However, the last training session on Tuesday was marked by the absence of Kylian Mbappé, who experienced some physical discomfort, according to reports from Cope. If Carlo Ancelotti has still not revealed his squad list, it is for this reason because the Frenchman is uncertain and will be tested today to determine whether or not he is fit.
Compared to the first leg, the Madrid coach will have Jude Bellingham, who was suspended, available for this match. It should be noted that Modric, Camavinga, Tchouaméni, Rudiger, and Endrick are all under threat of suspension for a possible quarter-final.
Finally, Carlo Ancelotti will be without four players: Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal, although the latter could be present and close to the team as captain, as well as Vallejo and Dani Ceballos, who have also still not recovered.
