Real Madrid will host Paulo Fonseca's AC Milan for a matchup between two of the most historically successful sides of the UEFA Champions League. The Galacticos will be back on the pitch after their game against Valencia was postponed over the weekend and it will also be the first time Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr. will play after surprisingly losing the 2024 Ballon d'Or. On the other side, USMNT winger Christian Pulisic wants to impress in one of the most rated stadium around the world. Here are our storylines, how you can watch the match, and more:
Real Madrid: This is the first time Real Madrid are back playing after losing the Clasico last week and this is why Ancelotti is likely to name the best XI possible against his former club. Vinicius and Mabppe will play alongside Jude Bellingham and will try to craft a win against the Italian giants.
Possible Real Madrid XI: Lunin; Vazquez, Militao, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Camavinga, Modric; Bellingham; Vinicius, Mbappe.
AC Milan: Fonseca is expected to play Portuguese striker Rafael Leao alongside former Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata and USMNT winger Christian Pulisic, while Yunus Musah is also expected to start in the midfielder instead of Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
Possible AC Milan XI: Maignan; Royal, Thiaw, Tomori, Hernandez; Musah, Fofana, Reijnders; Pulisic, Morata, Leao.
