Possible alignment of Real Madrid today against Elche in the League

Real Madrid visits Elche in a state of happiness. Ancelotti’s team regained the lead after beating Barcelona in the Clasico and celebrates its success at the Ballon d’Or gala, in which Benzema won the coveted trophy and Courtois won the Yashin as the best goalkeeper last season. Precisely, the Belgian goalkeeper is one of the casualties that the white team has. The goalkeeper is finishing his set-up after the sciatica that has kept him out of the last five games and Carletto hopes to have him on Saturday against Sevilla.

Courtois’s is one of the three casualties in the call to face Almirón’s team. Ceballos continues to recover from his hamstring injury that keeps his return in suspense before the break for the World Cup. Mariano is not on the list either. The Hispanic-Dominican striker did not jump onto the pitch at Valdebebas on the eve of the game due to discomfort and worked in the gym. It is his first absence of the season.

After lining up his gala eleven in the Clásico against Barcelona, in Elche some limited rotations will return. Carvajal and Alaba can leave their place in defense to Lucas Vázquez and Rüdiger respectively. Valverde can rest Kroos or Modric in midfield and the Uruguayan’s position in attack can fall back to Rodrygo, who saw his streak of seven straight games as a starter interrupted in the Clásico.
