Its matchday, and hoping today we put our poor previous performances behind us.am going to go for an easy win for Real Madrid today.

The Squad List

The line I'd like to see today, against Alaves.

Goal Keeper: Thibaut Courtois

Back Four: Odriozola - Varane - Ramos - Reguilon

Midfielders: Luka Modric - Toni Kroos - Dani Ceballos

Forward Line: Vazquez - Mariano - Marco Asensio

I'm letting Bale rest for another game rather than rushing him because we all know that he's made of glass and we need him fit for the unforgiving clasico.

Casemiro has been absolutely crucial for us in defence and has saved a lot of goals for us but its kind of a dilemma and the Kroos - Casemiro double pivot really leaves a lot to be desired on the offensive front. So I'd like Kroos to assume the role of the team's sole midfield orchestrator and let Ceballos and Modric aid the midfield.

The forward line needs a rotation. Mariano and Vazquez deserve a starting spot and it's crucial that they start together. Vazquez's ability as a natural winger who plays close to the touchline is well complimented by Mariano's good aerial ability. Also, Vazquez will definitely stretch the backline for Asensio, Modric and Ceballos to exploit the resulting space. A poor half from Marco Asensio and I wouldn't mind subbing in Vinicius Jr. for him to be able to get more time on the field and hopefully be able to cut through Alaves' defence from the left.

PREDICTION

I know we haven't scored a single goal in 3 games in a row now, but I am positive we are going to explode today and will probably run riot on the hosts of Alaves so I am going to side with the over 3,25 goal line in this one and I find that to be a very smart and wise pick to make. The away team need the points badly to get out of this situation that is not just logical, it is also mental for them and I think a 1-3 or 1-4/2-4 type of game is what we get here.so am going for Madrid to win 1-3

HALA MADRID!!
