Both teams put up very similar lineups from the last encounter from one week ago. The only change in Real Madrid’s lineup is Feller taking Athenea’s place on the wing. The defense is, once again, almost completely different from the weekend game with only Kathellen being a consistent starter. This rotation of the defensive players might be a huge handicap for Las Blancas as there have been some very apparent defensive errors in the last few matches, and the lack of consistency in the lineups doesn’t help either.
