The players of Real Madrid unexpectedly lost in the last round of LaLiga at home against Villarreal with a score of 2:3. Although they had the advantage twice during the game, they still failed to preserve it. The first goal for the home team was an own goal, while the second time Vinicius Junior hit the net for the guests, assisted by Danio Ceballos.
In the league, they currently occupy the second position in the table with 59 points, even twelve more than the fifth-placed Villarreal. In the semifinals of the Copa del Rey, they eliminated Barcelona with a total score of 1:4. In the last six matches in all competitions, they registered four wins and two losses.
Madrid’s coach, Carlo Ancelotti, has all players available for the upcoming match, except for Ferlando Mendy, who has been sidelined for a month due to a calf injury. All other players are ready to welcome the next match.
In the last match against Villarreal, the Italian specialist rested Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Eder Militao, Federico Valverde, and Eduardo Camavinga, but they should be in the starting 11 for this match.

Frank Lampard returned to the Chelsea bench again, but on his new debut he was defeated by Wolves away from home with a score of 0:1. Although, by all statistical parameters, they were the better rival, they conceded a goal in the 31st minute, after which they could not return to the match and the result remained unchanged until the end.
In the Premier League, they currently occupy only the 11th position in the table with 39 points won, and they are separated by as many as 14 points from the place that leads to the European competition. In the FA Cup, they were eliminated in the first round by Manchester City away from home 4:0. In the last four competitive games, they did not record a single victory.
As for the injured players, Mason Mount, Armando Broja, and Thiago Silva are out of the protocol for the next match due to injury, and Benoit Badiashile, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Noni Madueke, and David Datro Fofana are not registered for the competition in the Champions League.
N’Golo Kante and Ben Chilwell missed the last match as a precaution, but should now be in the starting line-up. They will replace Marco Cucurella and Conor Gallagher, and there should be no other changes. But we have to see.
