Official: Real Madrid’s starting line-up against Pachuca | FIFA Intercontinental Cup

Real Madrid will be vying for their second trophy of the season tonight when they take on Mexican side CF Pachuca in the FIFA Intercontinental Cup in Qatar.

Ahead of the match at Lusail Stadium, Los Blancos Boss Carlo Ancelotti has announced the starting lineup that will take the field.

The big news is that Kylian Mbappe, who suffered an injury last week, is fit again and starting for Real Madrid in attack.

The Frenchman collaborates with Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo Goes in Merengues’ attacking unit.

Thibaut Courtois lines up between the sticks as usual for Real Madrid, protected by the backline of Lucas Vazquez, Aurelien Tchouameni, Antonio Rudiger and Fran Garcia. There is still no place for Raul Asencio in the starting line-up.

In-form man Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde hold on to their places in the middle of the park for Los Blancos. The second spot in midfield is taken up by Eduardo Camavinga, who returns from injury.
