TEAMS PREVIEW

Kairat Almaty Preview

Looking at this Kairat squad, they will look to bounce back in a huge way after being dominated during their first match. Although this one won’t be that easy either, their side has extra boosted confidence after scoring their first-ever UCL goal last week. 

Up front, Dastan Saetpav has already looked like a threat after having three shots on goal last week alongside three progressive passes received. Running fast down the line, he was able to build on that pace and find open areas to create chances, while almost scoring his first-ever Champions League goal. 

At just 17, he will slowly become a legend for this side and is joined by Valeriy Gromyko, 6 progressive passes received, to create more shot opportunities. One piece that has really shown up near the middle is Ofri Arad, 5 progressive passes, as he’s shown great vision and chance-creating ability. 

While Aleksandar Mrynskiy leads this side with four carries. A group that has found opportunity creators, Aleksandr Martynovich continues being one of best pass disruptors as he had 4 interceptions during their first match. Defender Erkin Tapalov should also help Sherkan Kalmurza be pretty strong in net. 

Kairat Probable Starting Lineup - Sherkhan Kalmurza(GK), Erkin Tapalov(D), Aleksandr Martynovich(D), Egor Sorokin(D), Luis Mata(D), Damir Kasabulat(MD), Ofri Arad(MD), Aleksandr Mrynskiy(MD), Jorginho(MD), Valeriy Gromyko(FW), Dastan Satpaev(FW)

Real Madrid CF Preview

For Real Madrid, their side will be getting many major pieces back after they rested against Marseille during the first match. Striker Kylian Mbappe has already found the back of the net twice and looks extremely skilled with his pace, which has let him find more chances. 

Someone who received 14 progressive passes in his first match itself, it just shows how much he has the ball out front, while chemistry with Fredrico Valverde has looked dangerous. 

With no Jude Bellingham in the lineup, Rodrygo, 2 shots on goal against Marseille, should really have an impact down the line and seems working well with Arda Guler too. 

A back-line that involves 5 defenders, Alvaro Carreras, has become key with two tackles and three clearances, while Dean Huijsen started showing a lot of promise as well with his athletic abilities. Leading the group will be Tchouameni, 5 interceptions, with him helping goalie Thibaut Courtois be top-notch once again. 

Real Madrid Probable Starting Lineup - Thibaut Courtois(GK), Eder Militao(D), Dean Huijsen(D), Trent Alexander-Arnold(D), Aurelien Tchouameni(D), Alvaro Carrera(D), Federico Valverde(MD), Arda Guler(MD), Vinicius Junior(FW), Rodrygo(FW), Kylian Mbappe(FW)
