Ancelotti has seen Guardiola get his defenses wrong due to injuries as players lose shape and have the general embarrassment of wealth.
Below is a look at the Manchester City vs Real Madrid forecast lineup and the latest team news and tactical analysis.
Manchester City predicted the lineup
——-Edason –
– akanji – stone – diaz— gvardiol –
– kovacic – Gonzalez—
—Fourden—– de bruyne — Bernardo—
——-Haaland –
If Adason is fit, he nods to Ortega at the goal, and the back four almost picks himself at this point. Having four centre-backs on the backline worked before Guardiola, but Akanji has done a big job when playing right to stop Vinicius. Rather than starting Rico Lewis, I feel that’s a smart play. In the middle, Kovacic will undoubtedly start as one of the owners and if Nico Gonzalez is suited to the start, he should nod to Gundogan and Bernardo Silva, who are struggling with a deeper central role this season. Foden’s experienced midfield trio DeBruin and Silva could start under Haaland as Omar Marmash is likely to come out of the bench in the second half. Doku and Grealish are also options from the bench, with City’s Squad getting back to training before this game and Ake gets stronger.
Out: Rodri (Torn ACL- more)|Suspicious: Ederson (Fitness), Nathan Ake (Muscle), Jeremy Doc (Knock), Nico Gonzalez (Knock)
Real Madrid predicted the lineup
——-Coatwa –
– valverde – tchouameni – asencio – Mendy —
– modric – ceballos –
– Rodrigo – Bellingham—Vinicius Jr. –
——- mbappe ——-
Clearly, the focus is on the defense of Real Madrid, where Rudiger and Alaba are on the sidelines to join Militao on the sidelines. Chuck came out at Carvajal for the season and his backup at Vazquez’s right back was also injured, and there are actually some serious issues. Midfielder Chuameni did an incredible job at centre-back, but youngster Raul Asensio starts with him in the biggest game of his career. Federico Valverde could soon return from his normal midfield position, but Modric and Kamavivanga will come for him in the middle of the middle. Modric will probably start a nod considering his experience, while the actual four are set up so that Rodrygo, Bellingham, Vinicius and Mbappe expose ruthless mistakes, especially at the counter. It’s been done.
OUT: Daniel Carballard (ACL), Edder Militau (ACL), Antonio Rudiger (Muscle), David Alaba (Adduct), Lucas Vazquez (Hamstring)
