Carlo Ancelotti is back at the helm of Real Madrid and he and the team are in Scotland to face Rangers. The coach only has 16 players available to him, plus three goalkeepers.

The first Ancelotti line up, in his second era, is: Lunin; Nacho, Marcelo, Lucas Vázquez, Jovic, Odriozola, Odegaard, Isco, Rodrygo, Blanco and Chust.

It’s the strongest side he can put out. Karim Benzema has Covid-19, while new signing David Alaba nor the returning Gareth Bale has travelled for the game.

 

Interestingly Madrid’s loan duo Jovic and Odegaard are back and both start.
