Real Madrid will aim to secure their first victory of the 2024-25 La Liga season when they face newly-promoted Real Valladolid at the Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon. Carlo Ancelotti's side began their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Mallorca, while Real Valladolid started their return to the top flight with a 1-0 win over Espanyol.
Real Madrid, fresh off a 2-0 victory against Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup, were unable to carry that momentum into their La Liga opener. Despite Rodrygo putting them ahead in the 13th minute, Mallorca's Vedat Muriqi equalized in the second half, leaving Los Blancos frustrated. Ancelotti's men will be eager to secure a win against Valladolid before upcoming matches against Las Palmas and Real Betis. However, the team faces injury concerns, with Jude Bellingham sidelined until late September, joining David Alaba and Eduardo Camavinga on the injury list. Kylian Mbappe and Endrick are the only summer signings, and Real Madrid remains a formidable contender for the La Liga title despite the early setback.
Real Valladolid, on the other hand, will be encouraged by their 1-0 win over Espanyol, courtesy of Raul Moro's first-half goal. Returning to La Liga after finishing second in the Segunda Division, Valladolid hopes to establish themselves in the top flight. The team has been active in the transfer market, bringing in 10 new players, including Juanmi Latasa and Mario Martin from Real Madrid. Despite a strong start, history is against Valladolid, as they have lost their last five league games against Real Madrid, including a heavy 6-0 defeat in April 2023.
Real Madrid is likely to make some adjustments due to injuries and suspensions, with Luka Modric potentially benefiting from Bellingham's absence. Fran Garcia is expected to start at left-back, replacing the suspended Ferland Mendy. The attacking trio of Rodrygo, Mbappe, and Vinicius Junior will look to lead the charge.
For Real Valladolid, Anuar Tuhami remains out due to a hernia, while Andre Ferreira and Kenedy may return to the squad. Head coach Paulo Pezzolano is likely to stick with the lineup that defeated Espanyol, with Mamadou Sylla leading the attack.
Considering Real Madrid's dominant record against Valladolid, particularly at the Bernabeu, a comfortable home victory is anticipated. A 3-0 win for Los Blancos, with Mbappe potentially opening his La Liga account, seems a likely outcome.
本周日下午,皇马将在伯纳乌主场迎战新升班马巴利亚多利德,目标是确保2024-25赛季西甲联赛的首胜。安切洛蒂的球队以1-1战平马洛卡开始了他们的新赛季,而皇家巴利亚多利德则以1-0战胜西班牙人开始了他们重返顶级联赛的征程。
刚刚在欧洲超级杯2-0战胜亚特兰大的皇马,在西甲联赛的首场比赛中未能保持这种势头。尽管罗德里戈在第13分钟帮助球队取得领先,但马略卡队的穆里奇在下半场扳平了比分,这让白衣军团感到沮丧。在接下来对阵拉斯帕尔马斯和皇家贝蒂斯的比赛之前,安切洛蒂的球员们将迫切希望赢得对巴利亚多利德的胜利。然而,球队面临着伤病问题,贝灵汉将缺阵到九月底,加入了阿拉巴和卡马文加的伤病名单。姆巴佩和恩德里克是唯一的夏季引援,尽管在赛季初遭遇挫折,皇马仍然是西甲冠军的有力竞争者。
另一方面,由于劳尔·莫罗上半场的进球,皇家巴利亚多利德将因1-0战胜西班牙人而受到鼓舞。在获得乙级联赛第二名后重返西甲,巴利亚多利德希望在顶级联赛中站稳脚跟。球队在转会市场上非常活跃,引进了10名新球员,其中包括来自皇马的胡安米·拉塔萨和马里奥·马丁。尽管开局强劲,但历史是对巴利亚多利德的,因为他们在最近五场联赛中输给了皇家马德里,包括在2023年4月以0比6惨败。
由于伤病和停赛,皇马可能会做出一些调整,莫德里奇可能会从贝灵汉的缺席中受益。弗兰。加西亚预计将在左后卫位置首发,取代停赛的弗兰。门迪。罗德里戈、姆巴佩和小维尼修斯的进攻三人组将带领球队前进。
对于皇家巴利亚多利德来说,阿努阿·图哈米由于疝气仍将缺席比赛,而安德烈·费雷拉和肯尼迪可能会回归。主教练保罗·佩佐拉诺可能会继续沿用击败西班牙人的阵容,由马马杜·塞拉领导进攻。
考虑到皇马对巴利亚多利德的统治记录,特别是在伯纳乌,一场舒适的主场胜利是值得期待的。一场3-0的胜利,姆巴佩可能会打开他的西甲联赛账户,这似乎是一个可能的结果。
