Expected teams Real Madrid-Osasuna: Carlo Ancelotti plans to change the formation after consecutive losses
After back-to-back defeats against Barcelona and AC Milan, Real Madrid will aim to return to winning ways on Saturday when they host Osasuna at the Santiago Bernabeu. The reigning La Liga champions are aiming to reduce the deficit at the top of the table to six points, after it was stretched to nine last weekend because their trip to Valencia was postponed.
Times are tough at Real Madrid, and Carlo Ancelotti is trying to put things in order. To do this, he intends to remove the 4-4-2 for the moment, with AS Diary predicting that the 4-3-3 will make its comeback against Osasuna.
As for the changes, there will be two: Eduardo Camavinga will replace the injured Aurelien Tchouameni, while Luke Modric will drop to the bench to allow Rodrygo Goes to regain his starting place.
Osasuna are also expected to make two changes from the win over Real Valladolid last Saturday, with Abel Bretones and Ruben Garcia coming into the side in place of Juan Cruz and Ruben Pena.
This will not be simple for Real Madridas well as Hi they had an excellent start to the season. Vicente Moreno's side, who were in Copa del Rey action during the week, will want to make the Bernabeu crowd nervous, and that could also go on the field.
