2023-05-11 11:56:24

According to the Spanish press, Carlo Ancelotti should carry out a major squad review once morest Getafe on Saturday in La Liga to prepare for the Champions League semi-final return. And that might make the candidates in the fight for the maintenance cringe.

Dropped in the title race but almost guaranteed to qualify for the next Champions League, Real Madrid will not make the reception of Getafe on Saturday (9 p.m.) a match of capital importance. According Brand, Carlo Ancelotti should make many changes in his starting lineup compared to the one that started once morest Manchester City (1-1) on Tuesday in the semi-final first leg of the Champions League. The technician should leave many executives to rest before returning on Wednesday (9 p.m., on RMC Sport 1) in England.

A completely revamped eleven?

If the Italian coach has not yet revealed his plans, the Spanish newspaper announces the possibility of a completely redesigned team from goalkeeper to attack. Andriy Lunin might thus start in the goal instead of Thibaut Courtois while Vallejo, Odriozola, Lucas Vázquez, Militao (or Rudiger, huge in the first leg), Nacho, Tchouaméni, Asensio and Mariano are all applying for a place. There would then remain two places to be filled in this scenario.

One thing seems to be taking shape, Ancelotti will not take any risks with his untouchables: Karim Benzema, Vinicius, Luka Modric or Toni Kroos. Such a workforce review would cringe in Spain where Real might be accused of distorting the competition. Because Getafe, 18th and first relegation (34 points), is engaged in the fight to maintain with several competitors: Almeria (14th with 36 points), Cadiz (15th, 35pts), Valladolid (16th, 35pts), Valencia (17th, 34pts) and Espanyol (29th, 31pts).

These teams would be wary of a remodeled Real team, giving Getafe a little more chance of grabbing one or three important point(s) in the maintenance race. Ancelotti will not fail to be questioned regarding his plans at a press conference on Friday. Doubled by Atlético de Madrid in second place last week following their defeat on the field of Real Sociedad (2-0), Real also has the ambition to recover its status as dolphin. But might do it with doubles ahead of a capital clash once morest City.
