Real Madrid predicted lineup vs Arsenal in Champions League 2024-25 quarter-finals second leg

Los Blancos will host the Gunners in the second leg of UCL.

Real Madrid have often staged one of the best comebacks in their history. On Wednesday night, once again, they will need to do just that. Massive hopes will be placed on the Los Blancos players to pull a historic comeback in Bernabeu.

It was least expected from Arsenal to put three goals past Real Madrid at Emirates. Now the Spanish club have a mountain to climb in the second leg.

The club will close the roof of the stadium as the fans aim to create a hostile atmosphere for the away team, which will certainly have a mental effect on them and create panic from the starting whistle.

However, Carlo Ancelotti won’t have all the players available for the game. We can expect him to tweak his lineup and deploy a more attacking side that will look for the first goal starting from the opening whistle of the match.

The Italian manager will employ a strong lineup against Arsenal. He would want his players to put pressure on the visitors from the starting minute to ignite the hopes of a comeback.

How Real Madrid can line up against Arsenal?

Real Madrid predicted line-up: (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Valverde, Asencio, Rudiger, Alaba; Tchouameni, Modric; Rodrygo, Bellingham, Vinicius Jr; Mbappe

Kylian Mbappe’s red card against Alaves will not affect his ability to play in Europe. But Camavinga, who won the match the previous weekend, will be out for Wednesday’s game after being sent off in the first leg. He was shown a red card for kicking the ball away while already on a yellow card. Now that sending off will prevent him from playing in the second leg.

With longtime knee injuries to Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal, Los Blancos have two guaranteed absences this week. Ferland Mendy (muscle) and Andriy Lunin (calf) are also in serious doubt after missing the game on Sunday.

Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr, who only made substitute appearances against Alaves, will be fit to play. Aurelien Tchouameni will be back to playing in the midfield after serving a first-leg ban.
