Real Madrid and RB Leipzig meet in a game for the Group F of the 2022-2023 UEFA Champions League. This game will take place at Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid on September 14, 2022 at 3:00 PM (ET). The home team are the defending champions and they want to show off their power. Here is all the detailed information about this Champions League potential lineups.
The defending champions, Real Madrid, won their first game of the group stage just as they were expected to do. The team was lethal playing on the road against Celtic, that game ended 3-0.
RB Leipzig did not have the same luck as the ‘Casa Blanca’ as they lost against Shakhtar Donetsk during the first round of games of the 2022-2023 UEFA Champions League season. The worst thing is that now they must seek victory playing on the road.
Real Madrid probable lineup
Real Madrid has an offensive power like no other team and during their most recent victory they showed that they are ready to defend their current title. Vinicius is now an important player alongside Benzema and Modric.
Ancelotti should use the same squad that he used against Celtic, although it is likely that this time Real Madrid’s defense will be a bit tighter than during their first game knowing that the German team is good at attacking.
This is the likely Real Madrid’s lineup for this game: Thibaut Courtois, Dani Carvajal, Antonio Rudiger, David Alaba, Benjamin Mendy, Lukac Modric, Aurélien Tchouameni, Toni Kroos; Federico Valverde, Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr.
RB Leipzig probable lineup
RB Leipzig’s failure at home was terrible, they lost due to multiple defensive errors that left the team exposed from the 16th minute when Shved scored Shakhtar’s first goal. Although the team resisted during the first half, everything fell apart in the second half when Shved, Mudryk and Traore scored goals.
RB Leipzig’s defensive game is slightly bad and proof of that is their current struggle at the german league, Bundesliga, where they have not been able to figure among the top five teams in the standings.
This is the likely RB Leipzig’s lineup for this game: Peter Gulacsi; Mohamed Simakan, Willi Orban, Abdou Diallo, David Raum, Konrad Laimer, Xaver Schlager, Christopher Nkunku, Emil Forsberg, Dominik Szoboszlai, Timo Werner.
