Real Madrid will have their 2nd feature in the 2018 International Champions Cup when they take on Juventus tomorrow night at Fedex Field in Washington, D.C.

REAL MADRID VS. JUVENTUS | ICC 2018


This is the first match between the two clubs since Ronaldo’s departure to Turin last month, though he did not make the US tour. They are also without the likes of Dybala and Mandzukic.

Real went with more youth and bench players in the starting squad last match, we may see some more usual starters in the lineup that have made the trip. While still a friendly, it’s another good chance for a majority of the traveling squad to see a good amount of minutes before the new season kicks off.

Injuries/Suspensions

Gareth Bale did go off yesterday in training and sat the rest of the session as a precautionary measure. It seems he will be available against Juventus, whether or not he starts is still a question.
Juventus have no injuries to their traveling squad.
Neither club has any suspensions.




Potential XIs Real Madrid :

Navas; Carvajal, Vallejo, Ramos, Theo; Llorente, Kroos; Isco, Bale, Asensio, Mayoral

Casilla got the start last match, so Navas may be given his first start of the preseason. Carvajal, Ramos, Isco, and Kroos may all be slotted in to get some minutes. Asensio will likely take Vinicius’ place on the left side. Bale may be given another start (if healthy), otherwise Odegaard may start, obviously if there is concern about Bale re-aggravating the injury he should sit. Mayoral could likely start in place of Benzema.

Potential XIs Juventus : 

Szczesny; De Sciglio, Chiellini, Benatia, Sandro; Khedira, Pjanic, Can; Bernardeschi, Pereira, Favilli
