Start of match
PRVW
The players make their way out here at the Red Bull Arena!

The players of both teams take the field for the pre-match warm-up!
Another of Real Madrid's doubts is who will play Bellingham. The Englishman's absence has been covered by Ancelotti with Brahim, so everything suggests that it will be the Malaga native who will take the Briton's place in the starting eleven.
PRVW
Real Madrid, despite all the absentees they have accumulated, come into this game on top form. In fact, they took a giant step towards winning the league title after beating Girona 4-0 in a match in which they had no central defenders available, which is unusual.
PRVW
Irfan Peljto will be in the middle for this one, Pol van Boekel the VAR.
PRVW
Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Lunin (GK); Carvajal, Tchouameni, Nacho, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Camavinga; Diaz; Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo.
