Real Madrid will be without Carvajal, Courtois, Rodrygo, and Alaba, though Rudiger is set to return. Ancelotti’s likely lineup features Vinicius Junior and Mbappe up front, with Modric possibly starting to add midfield control.
AC Milan will miss Jovic, Gabbia, Bennacer, and Florenzi, but welcomes back Tammy Abraham. Leao and Loftus-Cheek are expected to start, along with former Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.
Real Madrid 2-1 AC Milan
