After a long summer break with nothing but International football to amuse us the league opener has arrived!
Real Madrid will meet Valencia CF at 19:00 CET (1:00 PM EST) at the Santiago Bernabéu. Good luck to our players.
This post will have the line-ups added to it as they are announced!
Update:
The lineups according to ESPN.com:
Real Madrid-
Casillas, Ramos, Pepe, Coentrao, Arbeloa, Alonso, Diarra, Ronaldo, Di Maria, Higuain and Ozil
Valencia-
Alves, Ruiz, R. Costa, Mathieu, Pereira, A. Costa, Gago, Guardado, Feghouli, Soldado, Jonas
No big suprises for Madrid. I'm assuming Khedira is nursing a minor knock or is otherwise being rested. I won't read much more into Higuain's selection, other than that he has (to my eye) looked sharper than Benzema in preseason.
Remember to be respectful with everybody's opinion while commenting on Managing Madrid.
