Real Madrid, under the guidance of interim coach Álvaro Arbeloa, has finalized its anticipated starting eleven for the crucial La Liga encounter against Sevilla. This match, part of the penultimate round of the 2025-2026 season, holds significant weight as Los Blancos continue their campaign.
The squad faces notable absences due to a string of injuries. The quartet of Rodrygo, Arda Güler, Ferland Mendy, and Éder Militão are all unavailable for selection. Adding to the team's challenges, goalkeeper Andriy Lunin is also expected to be sidelined, reportedly due to illness, forcing Arbeloa to make further adjustments to his lineup.
Despite these setbacks, the team is set to field a strong eleven, with Thibaut Courtois expected to start in goal. The defense is likely to feature Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, Antonio Rüdiger, and Fran García. The midfield will be anchored by Aurélien Tchouaméni and Eduardo Camavinga, providing a solid base for the attacking talents ahead.
In a potent attacking formation, Brahim Díaz, Jude Bellingham, and Vinícius Júnior are expected to operate behind the lone striker, Kylian Mbappé. This lineup signals Real Madrid's intent to secure a victory in this important league fixture, even with a depleted squad.
