Real Madrid-FC Barcelona: Possible lineups for the Spanish Super Cup final
Although Xavi Hernández has not offered many details about FC Barcelona's lineup for the Spanish Super Cup final, the chances are high that he will once again opt for a system with four midfielders and two attackers.
The FC Barcelona has the opportunity to repeat the history of does a year and top as 'Supercampeón' of Spain. This Sunday plays the possibility, in Riad, against his eternal rival, the Real Madrid, from the 20:00 hours (8:00 PM CET). The ones of Xavi Hernández arrive after imposing in front of the Osasuna (2-0) in the first victory with more than a goal of difference from September. They are conscious that, in case to impose in the Classical and add a new title to the vitrinas, the dynamics of the team can give a dump.
The crash between the two big of Spain will live like an authentic war and there are not certainties of which could be the plan of the trainer egarense for the clash. The return of Pedri González, the one who has gone back to 100%, opens the doors to that the Barça go back to play with four midfield players and two attackers, an approach that has given very good results in previous stretches of the stage of Xavi. To continuation, our forecast of the alignments:
Likely alignments of the Real Madrid vs FC Barcelona of the Supercopa of Spain
- XI of the Real Madrid: Kepa; Carvajal, Rüdiger, Nacho, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouaméni, Kroos, Bellingham; Rodrygo and Vinicius.
- XI of the FC Barcelona: Iñaki Crag; Araujo, Koundé, Christensen, Balde; Sergi Roberto, Pedri, Of Jong, Gündogan; Ferran Torres and Lewandowski.
- Iñaki Crag
Iñaki Crag
After signing his first goal to zero after what has been one 'eternity', from 3 December, Iñaki Crag will have the opportunity to play his first final with the Barça and, also, first Classical in the maximum category. In front of the Osasuna signed several interventions that kept 'alive' to his team before the goals of Lewandowski and Lamine, but in front of the Real Madrid will have to be the triple of attentive, especially by the mobility and good finish of players like Rodrygo, Vinicius or Bellingham.
Araújo-Koundé-Christensen-Balde
In the defensive saga there will be change of names regarding the party in front of the 'rojillos', but yes a more than possible change of role for Ronald Araújo, the one who is the Classical has accustomed to play like right side and like this 'brake' to Vinicius Jr. In case to be like this, the axis of the saga would remain for Jules Koundé and Andreas Christensen, with Alejandro Balde in the left side. Xavi does not have a lot of more options, place Iñigo Martínez, Marcos Alonso and Joao Cancel remain in the infirmary.
Sergi Roberto-Pedri-Of Jong-Gündogan
In the centre of the field and leading is where there are more doubts, because it has remained in the air if the Barça will play with a 4-4-2 or the 4-3-3 of 'all' the life. The return of Pedri González opens the doors so that Xavi bet for populating his medullary and try control the party and 'brake' the big virtues of the Madrid from his centre of the field. If it is like this, the elected would be Sergi Roberto, Pedri, Frenkie of Jong and Ílkay Gündogan. By his part, in case that they are alone three the means, the captain would be the big sacrificed.
Ferran-Lewandowski
Finally, in the attack the only that seems fixed is Robert Lewandowski, that carries two consecutive parties seeing goal and knows what is to annotate to the Real Madrid in the Supercopa. In case that it bet by a trident, his mates would be Ferran Torres or Joao Félix in the left extreme, with Lamine Yamal in the right, but if only it uses to two attackers, the one of Foios part, a priori, with a slight advantage.
