How could Real Madrid lineup vs. Atalanta: Kylian Mbappe set for UEFA Super Cup debut

Real Madrid kickoff their 2024/25 season with a UEFA Super Cup showdown against Atalanta on August 14 with Kylian Mbappe set for his club debut.

Los Blancos wrapped up the previous campaign with a La Liga and UEFA Champions League double and they start the new season against UEFA Europa League holders Atalanta in Warsaw.

Carlo Ancelotti's side endured a mixed set of results in their preseason tour of North America with the Italian missing some of his key names.

New signing Mbappe was among those absent, as part of post-Euro 2024/Copa America squad breaks, with the France captain training in Madrid alongside his new teammates.

Ancelotti named a strong panel for the trip to Poland with the majority of those who did not travel to the USA back involved.

Mbappe will be the headline act, as he prepares for a long-awaited club debut, but fellow new arrival Endrick Felipe is set to start on the bench.

Vinicius Junior is set to partner Mbappe in attack after reportedly rejecting a mega-money offer from the Saudi Pro League.

David Alaba has travelled, despite still recovering from a knee injury, and teenage center-back Jacobo Ramón has been included, after impressing in preseason.

Ancelotti is debating whether to rest Jude Bellingham from the start, on the back of a demanding 12 months for club and country, and the England international is unlikely to play 90 minutes against Gian Piero Gasperini's team.

Real Madrid predicted (4-3-3, right to left): Courtois — Vazquez, Militao, Rudiger, Garcia — Bellingham, Camavinga, Modric — Valverde, Mbappe, Vinicius Junior.
