La Liga: Real Madrid starting eleven against Real Oviedo

Real Madrid faces newly promoted Real Oviedo tonight on matchday two of La Liga. The official line-ups are in, and Xabi Alonso has sprung a few surprises.

On the Madrid side, the coach has opted to start Dani Carvajal, Rodrygo, and the young Franco Mastantuono right from kick-off. Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Vinícius Jr, and Brahim Díaz will begin the match on the bench.

Real Oviedo, who were beaten 2-0 by Villarreal on the opening day and went down to ten men after Alberto Reina was sent off, will be looking to bounce back in front of their home crowd.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, come into the game full of confidence after their opening 1-0 win over Osasuna, sealed by a Kylian Mbappé penalty. The stage is set for an eagerly anticipated kick-off between a hungry newcomer and a Real side already seeking consistency.
