The cr.azy defensive line that Ancelotti will adopt at Anfield against Liverpool without Militao and Lucas Vazquez: No one will ever expect it

Real Madrid’s defensive situation has become more complicated than ever, with injuries piling up and making it difficult for the team to fill all positions as they would normally. Looking ahead to the upcoming Champions League clash with Liverpool on November 27, it seems almost certain that the team will be without key players such as Tchouaméni, Militao, and Carvajal. This leaves coach Carlo Ancelotti with little choice but to deploy some unconventional defensive options for what will be one of the toughest matches of the season.

According to *Defensa Central*, Ancelotti may have to field a defensive line featuring Valverde, Asensio, Rüdiger, and Mendy. Another option could see Mendy playing at right-back, a position he has occupied under previous coach Zidane, while Fran García or Camavinga could slot in at left-back. This would leave Rüdiger and Asensio to partner in central defense. Regardless of the specific arrangement, the defense for this game is set to be one of the most unorthodox in recent memory due to the injury crisis.

There is a clear need for reinforcements in the upcoming winter transfer window, but in the meantime, Ancelotti must navigate a crucial series of matches with a focus on flexibility. Despite the setbacks, the team remains united and determined to push forward, and Ancelotti will rely on adaptable players who can fill multiple roles. In addition to adjusting player positions, he may also need to call up second-team players from Real Madrid Castilla to help shoulder the load.

Raúl Asensio’s solid performance in the last match could boost Ancelotti’s confidence in Castilla players, offering them a potential chance to break into the first team during this challenging period.
