Team News: Mbappé Doubtful for Real Madrid
Real Madrid’s Injury Concerns
Kylian Mbappé, Real Madrid’s 31-goal La Liga top scorer, missed training with a fever and remains a last-minute decision. With teenage striker Endrick also injured, Alonso may rely on Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo upfront.
New signings Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dean Huijsen could debut, bolstering a backline missing key defenders like Carvajal and Alaba.
Predicted XI (4-3-1-2):
Courtois; Alexander-Arnold, Nacho, Huijsen, García; Valverde, Tchouaméni, Modrić; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Vinícius
Al Hilal’s European Flair
Al Hilal’s squad blends Saudi stars with elite imports like João Cancelo, Sergej Milinković-Savić, and Aleksandar Mitrović—who has 68 goals in 79 games. Cancelo’s fitness is in question, but Mitrović’s physicality and Salem Al-Dawsari’s creativity (15 goals, 15 assists this season) pose real threats.
Predicted XI (3-5-2):
Bono; Tambakti, Koulibaly, Al-Bulayhi; Cancelo, Kanno, Neves, Milinković-Savić, Al-Dawsari; Malcolm, Mitrović
Real Madrid vs Al Hilal: Key Storylines
1. Xabi Alonso’s Tactical Debut
Alonso emphasizes high pressing and defensive cohesion, declaring: “We need 11 individuals working as one unit” . His midfield trio (Bellingham, Valverde, Modrić) must control the tempo against Al Hilal’s physicality.
2. The Mbappé Factor
If fit, Mbappé’s pace could dismantle Al Hilal’s defense. His absence would shift creative duties to Bellingham and Vinícius.
3. Mitrović vs. Real’s Defense
Mitrović’s aerial dominance tests Real’s makeshift backline. Goalkeeper Courtois must be alert against crosses and set-pieces.
