Carlo Ancelotti is going to switch to a defensive 4-4-2 against Manchester City at the Etihad, according to Radio Marca, citing a person ‘close to Carlo’.
Eduardo Camavinga would play in the midfield while Rodrygo would be benched.
Here is what the starting lineup may look like.
Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Rudiger, Alaba; Valverde, Modric, Kroos, Camavinga; Benzema, Vinicius Jr.
– Eder Militao would be back from suspension;
– Antonio Rudiger would face Erling Haaland again after a successful first leg;
– Federico Valverde would drop to the midfield;
– Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema would form the attacking duo, with the Brazilian playing as a deep-lying forward close to the left side.
