Real Madridvs.Sevilla

sportsmole.co.uk, 20 December 2024, 19:59
Real Madrid are expected to have both Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham available for Sunday's La Liga clash with Sevilla.

Mbappe and Bellingham, alongside Thibaut Courtois and Federico Valverde, did not train with their teammates on Friday, but all four are set to be available for selection, as Real Madrid prepare to return to domestic action.

Vinicius Junior, though, will not be involved, with the Brazil international suspended due to the milestone yellow card that he picked up in the 3-3 draw with Rayo Vallecano in the team's last domestic affair.

Real Madrid could be boosted by the return of Ferland Mendy, who has recently been absent with a muscular problem, but Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao and David Alaba remain unavailable for selection through injury.

Brahim Diaz is expected to be the player to benefit from Vinicius' absence, while Mbappe is fit, with the Frenchman making his return from a muscular problem in the final of the FIFA Intercontinental Cup against Pachuca on Wednesday night.

Eduardo Camavinga is set to feature alongside Valverde in central midfield, while Aurelien Tchouameni is again expected to operate alongside Antonio Rudiger in the middle of the home side's back four.

Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Courtois; Vazquez, Tchouameni, Rudiger, F Garcia; Valverde, Camavinga; Rodrygo, Bellingham, Brahim; Mbappe
