Confirmed Lineups for Real Madrid - Leganés: This Is How Ancelotti Starts

Coach Carlo Ancelotti Goes All Out Against Leganés at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium

Real Madrid is already ready to face CD Leganés at Santiago Bernabéu stadium, in a match where Los Merengues are obliged to earn the three points.

Carlo Ancelotti, aware that they must win, has put out a line-up that will go for victory from the initial whistle.

"The team is quite well. The players who have returned have had time to recover. Tomorrow begins the final stretch of the season, we have many matches, and we have to do well. We are in all competitions, and this increases the responsibility. Each match can be decisive in trying to win the titles we want to win. La Liga is not decided. Barcelona has an advantage, but we have to play El Clásico, and there are many matches left," expressed the Italian coach in a press conference.

These words from the Merengue coach made clear the changes he would bet on against Los Pepineros, although some are "obliged" by injuries and the intense schedule ahead.

In the Merengue goal will be Andriy Lunin, who returns to the starting position due to Thibaut Courtois's physical discomfort.

In the defensive area will be Lucas Vázquez, Raúl Asencio, Antonio Rüdiger, and Fran García, the latter being the big news after finishing with muscle problems in the match at La Cerámica.

Güler, the Big News

However, the big news has come in the midfield with the inclusion of Arda Güler, who will be accompanied by Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, and Jude Bellingham.

This is a golden opportunity for the young Turk, who has long demanded quality minutes, and now the chance has come to show his talent.

In attack, Brahim Díaz and Kylian Mbappé will be responsible for posing more danger to Leganés's goal.

Key Footballers Are Reserved

This line-up by Carlo Ancelotti means that players like Vinicius Jr., Fede Valverde, Aurélien Tchouaméni, or Rodrygo Goes start the match on the bench, always thinking about what Madridists will have ahead in the coming weeks.
