Bellingham’s Comeback and Carvajal’s New Defense Position
Carlo Ancelotti rewards Bellingham for that free-kick effort and gives Militao a much-needed breather. Carvajal moves into the middle, a position he played in throughout last season. Jude Bellingham is the pure midfield-ambra with Tchouameni, who also starts as the anchor.
Real Madrid Starts to Heal from Its Injury Problems
Real Madrid is already starting to mend from successive injuries that have had four of its best players on the bench. The return of Bellingham and Tchouameni means they are likely to host Stuttgart at the Bernabéu with a near-ideal starting eleven, the only change in personnel being Carvajal on the central defender position after Militao’s recent difficulties.
Ancelotti on Bellingham and Tchouameni’s Comeback
Ancelotti mentioned Bellingham and Tchouameni as “two important players who are back.” Militao could also have played despite the knock he suffered from a recent match against Real Sociedad but was given more rest instead. Carvajal will play defense alongside Rüdiger, according to Ancelotti.
Four Key Lineup Changes for the Stuttgart Clash
There are four lineup changes from the last game when they played Real Sociedad: Rodrygo plays instead of Brahim, and Modric and Güler give way to accommodate Tchouameni and Bellingham. Lucas also replaces Militao in the field. This is the first game together for Bellingham, Mbappé, Vinicius, and Rodrygo this season here at the Bernabéu.
Madrid’s Starting Eleven Against Stuttgart
The starting eleven of Madrid that is facing Stuttgart is as follows: Courtois; Lucas, Carvajal, Rüdiger, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouameni, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappé, and Vinicius. Ancelotti has made a list of 19 players for the match, which gives eight places to be used on the bench. These are Lunin, Fran González, Militao, Vallejo, Fran García, Modric, Arda Güler, and Endrick.
Squad Update: Injuries and Recoveries in Real Madrid
Ancelotti has brought back Bellingham and Tchouameni for this encounter. Still, four players are in the medical room, Alaba, Camavinga, Ceballos, and Brahim. Alaba will return before the end of 2024, as he is almost over recovery. Camavinga will return when October ends since he is just suffering from a knee sprain. Ceballos has an ankle sprain which means that this player might need at least until November to return. Brahim is injured and out for three months due to an injury he suffered at Anoeta.
