2026-2027 La Liga: Elche vs. Real Madrid—Probable Lineups

Midweek action in La Liga, with Elche hosting Real Madrid. The Blancos, victorious in their Champions League season opener against Inter, could make significant lineup changes with Sunday afternoon’s derby against Atlético already on their minds

Elche, however, should not be underestimated: they concede a lot but are also a team capable of scoring against the big clubs. In terms of the lineup, Bernardo Silva, Diomande, Dumfries, and Carreras could be rested. Mourinho could give playing time to Camavinga, Guler, Alexander-Arnold, and Cucurella. In any case, he has no shortage of options.

Probable lineups:

Elche (3-4-2-1): Dituro; Bigas, Redondo, Chust; Morente, Lemar, Villar, Valera; Buonanotte, Neto; Osorio. Head Coach: Anselmi

Real Madrid (4-2-3-1): Courtois; A. Arnold, Konaté, Rüdiger, Cucurella; Valverde, Camavinga; A. Güler, Bellingham, Vinicius; Mbappé. Coach: Mourinho
