Real Madrid host Fiorentina in the Bernabéu Trophy —22:45 CET—, a good chance for young players like Theo, Marcos Llorente, Ceballos or Achraf to show how good and how ready they are to compete right now.
Zinedine Zidane will most likely use his roster wisely knowing that Los Blancos face Valencia in a much more meaningful game next Sunday. Therefore, the key starters will almost certainly get some rest, even though they will probably play some minutes as well.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos, who are suspended, will also use this match to get in a better shape after a tough pre-season, especially the Portuguese star, who rejoined the team’s training sessions just two weeks ago.
It will be interesting to see what the young players mentioned above can offer, as most of the depth at Zinedine Zidane’s disposal will be brought by these inexperienced and yet very skilled players.
