Real Madrid Team News at Getafe: Ancelotti, Mbappe, Mendy

By

It appears that the reports of Carlo Ancelotti exiting Real Madrid have been greatly exaggerated. Or those reports are real, but neither the manager, nor the club wanted word to get out yet. Ancelotti addressed his future at the club ahead of tomorrow night's La Liga clash at Getafe: "In football, anything is possible. I'm not surprised by anything, so anything can happen. … [Read more...] about Real Madrid Team News at Getafe: Ancelotti, Mbappe, Mendy

Real Madrid Starting Lineup Prediction vs Athletic Club

By

For the most part, building a real life fantasy football team just doesn't work. You can't go out and just spend all the money you can on every star player that you can get. It doesn't automatically equal championships/titles/trophies. Real Madrid enter the Sunday clash vs Athletic Club trailing FC Barcelona by four points in the La Liga table. And now, their manager won't … [Read more...] about Real Madrid Starting Lineup Prediction vs Athletic Club

Real Madrid Starting Lineup Prediction vs Arsenal (Champions League)

Arsenal Lineup Prediction at Real Madrid (Champions League)

By

Bad news first for Arsenal- this past weekend extinguished their Premier League title hopes. Those hopes were on life support to begin with, but falling two more points behind Liverpool (making the deficit now 13) just killed off the idea entirely. Now for the good news, they should easily skate past Real Madrid into the UCL semifinals this midweek. With a nice cushion from … [Read more...] about Arsenal Lineup Prediction at Real Madrid (Champions League)

Real Madrid Starting Lineup Prediction at Alaves

By

Wow! Did not expect that disaster from Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League this midweek. Their next opponents, Alaves, are probably going to feel the pain now.  Maybe Alaves are catching Los Blancos at the wrong time? Or maybe it's the right time? Either way, Arsenal thrashed Madrid, 3-0, in a match that could have ended up even more lopsided than that. The quarterfinal … [Read more...] about Real Madrid Starting Lineup Prediction at Alaves
