\n

Real Madrid will entertain Levante at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium on Saturday as they hope to secure a win at home in La Liga. The Madrid club suffered a shock 3-2 defeat away at Albacete recently, so they would be eager to bounce back with a positive result this weekend.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a few changes to his first XI for this game. Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni and Alvaro Carreras could all play from the start of this contest.<\/p>\n

Defence<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Thibaut Courtois will feature in between the sticks for Los Blancos after being rested in midweek. Raul Asencio will continue to operate alongside Dean Huijsen at the heart of the Real Madrid backline as they look to keep a solid shape defensively during the 90 minutes.<\/p>\n

Federico Valverde will try to put in a solid display as the right-back, while Alvaro Carreras looks to give a good account of himself on the other flank as the left-back. Both of them will get the freedom to go forward and express themselves in the final third.<\/p>\n

Dani Carvajal and David Alaba will provide cover for the defensive positions on the bench.<\/p>\n

Midfield<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni will operate as the holding midfielders as they focus on winning the 50-50 duels in the middle of the park and orchestrating some inviting chances in the final third.<\/p>\n

The gifted trio of Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham and Franco Mastantuno will play just ahead of them as part of Arbeloa\u2019s attack. All three of them need to move the ball well if they want to create enough chances for Los Blancos to win this contest on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Dani Ceballos and Arda Guler will have to be content with a place on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if needed.<\/p>\n

Attack<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Gonzalo Garcia will lead the charge for the Madrid giants up top. He would be eager to threaten the Levante goal this weekend.<\/p>\n

Kylian Mbappe is close to a return from injury but might not be risked in this game.<\/p>\n
