Preseason friendlies: Real Madrid vs. Fiorentina—probable lineups

A prestigious friendly match awaits Fabio Grosso’s Fiorentina, who will face José Mourinho’s Real Madrid at 6 p.m. in Klagenfurt, Austria. The Viola are coming off a win against Watford, which followed a loss to QPR, while the Blancos are playing their second preseason match after defeating Leganés on July 28.

Mourinho is missing a large part of his squad (many national team players returning from the World Cup are set to rejoin the team in the coming days) but can already count on Endrick, who is expected to start alongside Yanez, Arda Güler, and Ciria in the attacking midfield trio. Valverde and Camavinga will anchor the midfield, while the back line will consist of Alexander-Arnold, Lamini Fati, Rivas, and Carreras.

Grosso is expected to rely on the Gudmundsson-Kean duo up front, with new signing Atta providing support. In midfield, the spotlight is on Oulai, who will be flanked by Ndour and Fabbian. Dodô and Ranieri are the two fullbacks.
