Real Madrid can complete the double with victory over Liverpool in tonight’s Champions League final, and Carlo Ancelotti has named his starting XI as Los Blancos aim to add a 14th European cup to their illustrious trophy cabinet.

Real Madrid Starting Line-Up vs Liverpool

Starting XI: Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Mendy; Casemiro, Kroos, Modric; Valverde, Vinicius Jr, Benzema (C)

Substitutes: Lunin, Nacho, Hazard, Asensio, Marcelo, Vazquez, Bale, Ceballos, Rodrygo, Isco, Mariano, Camavinga

The decision by Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti to start Federico Valverde over Champions League hero Rodrygo is being labelled as ‘brave’ by some, with five goals and two assists in the campaign so far only good enough for the Brazilian to make the bench.

David Alaba returns to the starting XI after sitting on the bench for Madrid’s incredible semi-final comeback against Manchester City in the only change for Los Blancos.

A strong XI from Ancelotti and he’s not short on firepower from the bench either with names like Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale, Rodrygo, Isco and Camavinga available to be brought on if needed.
