Vinícius Junior returns to the Real Madrid starting team for the fight for first place against Girona at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, where Carlo Ancelotti debuts defense due to injuries to all the center backs in the first team, and lines up Dani Carvajal alongside to Aurélien Tchoauméni.

Ancelotti makes two changes to his starting team against Girona with respect to the Madrid derby that tied against Atlético de Madrid. The return of the Frenchman Tchoauméni after serving a suspension, as a center back due to the injuries of Antonio Rüdiger, Nacho Fernández, Èder Militao and David Alaba, plus the entry of the Brazilian Vinícius into attack for Brahim.

The losses of the four centre-backs of the Madrid first team force Ancelotti to delay Tchouaméni’s position and repeat with Dani Carvajal as centre-back for the second consecutive game.

Real Madrid starts the match with: Lunin; Lucas Vázquez, Carvajal, Tchouaméni, Mendy; Camavinga, Kroos, Fede Valverde, Bellingham; Vinícius and Rodrygo. EFE
