Coaches |
Carlo Ancelotti |
No surprises on Ancelotti's lineup other than Carvajal's start on Arbeloa's place. It seems that the Italian coach is expecting to face a defensive Schalke 04 side. It could be a mistake as Carvajal will be playing against Julian Draxler on that right wing. Schalke will stand a chance if the German playmaker is able to make the best out of Carvajal's desire to go forward.
