Real Madrid have published their starting lineup for the upcoming match against Shakhtar Donetsk in the third matchday of the 2021 UEFA Champions League Group Stage.

Real Madrid starting XI: Courtois, Lucas, Militao, Alaba, Mendy, Casemiro, Kroos, Modric, Vinicius, Rodrygo, Benzema.

Shakhtar starting XI (TBC): Pyatov, Dodo, Santos, Matvienko, Ismaily, Stepanenko, Solomon, Patrick, Maycon, Pedrinho, Fernando.

Los Blancos need to win this one and doing so in encouraging fashion would be great for the team ahead of Sunday’s El Clasico. Ancelotti’s men should only focus on this game though, so it’s time for them to play like a good team once again.
