Problem for Ancelotti: Courtois, serious doubt for Madrid-Barça

Thibaut Courtois follows without training by the problems in the nerve ciático. The Belgian suffers a ciatalgia left that produces him an intense pain in the back region which has prevented him return to the trainings. Carlo Ancelotti has left him outside of the announcement for the party of the Tuesday home in front of the Shakhtar Donetsk and, to a week for the Classical home in front of the FC Barcelona, the '1' is serious doubt for the most important party of the first-half of season.

The one of Bree does not play with the Real Madrid from the derbi in front of the Athletic in Wanda (triumph 1-2). The goalkeeper contested the two commitments that Belgium contested in September by the Nations League (victory in front of Belgium and defeat in front of Low Countries), but to his return to Valdebebas began to suffer the pain in the nerve ciático that forced him to lose the parties in front of Osasuna (1-1), Shakhtar (2-1) and Getafe (0-1).

Andriy Lunin Has occupied of the arch 'merengue' with discreet performances, but without grave errors. In the Coliseo Alfonso Pérez, the Ukrainian left his arch in zero, being the first time that the Madrid does not fit goals in what it goes of LaLiga (eight days). However, the possible drop of Courtois can be determinant in the Classical, since Lunin does not have experience in parties of similar magnitude.

Although it has fit more so many of the usual, the Belgian began the 2022-23 exhibiting the same level that consecrated him like the best goalkeeper of Europe the past season. His unemployed sustained to the Madrid in Scotland in front of the Celtic (triumph 0-3) and avoided greater evils in the first six days of League, where the ones of Carlo Ancelotti added plenary of victories. In front of the powerful attack of the Barça, the absence of Courtois could be key to resolve a Classical that boasts very equalised.

Benzema, the another doubts for Ancelotti

Another very serious doubt for the Madrid of face to the Classical is Karim Benzema. The captain remained outside of the list in front of the Getafe by prevention and follows far of his best level. In principle, the '9' will be the Tuesday in front of the Shakhtar, but Carlo Ancelotti will not risk if the forward follows with annoyances. To a week of the Classical, the Madrid could lose to his two maximum figures of the season gone through physical problems.
