Hazard retells

Ancelotti bets on Hazard. The Belgian returns to the starting eleven that the Italian coach raises from the start in the Champions League game against the Sheriff. It will be the first minutes of 7 Madridista in Europe this season, since the first match against Inter saw it complete from the San Siro side.

Hazard was not a starter since the comeback against Valencia, which the white team culminated when the Belgian had already been replaced by Jovic. It is the fifth game Hazard has played at the start of this season. Ancelotti trusted him in the first two matches, against Alavés and Levante, but the good start of Vinicius made the Brazilian consolidate in the ownership to the detriment of Eden. The carioca has not fallen from the eleven since he took the position against Betis and will accompany Hazard and Benzema in the attack.

Camavinga opens title in Champions

The other noteworthy note from Ancelotti's team is Camavinga's ownership. It will be the second for the French midfielder, who debuted responsibility in the league clash against Mallorca six days ago. Casemiro remains immovable in the pivot, like Valverde ahead. The Uruguayan, after acting as a right back against Villarreal, recovers his natural position in the center of the field. Ancelotti rotates giving Modric rest.

Ancelotti recovers the defense he lined up against Mallorca, with Nacho, Militao, Alaba and Miguel Gutiérrez protecting Courtois, who completes the eleven.

On the bench the main novelty is the inclusion of Kroos, in which it is the first call of the season for the German. Along with him, in addition to the aforementioned Modric, Lunin, Luis López, Vallejo, Blanco, Lucas Vázquez, Asensio, Isco, Rodrygo, Jovic and Mariano await their opportunity.
