Real Madrid will face Mallorca today, Monday, at Son Moix, in the 28th round match of the La Liga competition, where the white team can widen the difference with their closest followers in the standings.
Carlo Ancelotti is the coach who never thinks beyond the next match, no matter how important it is whether it is a derby, El Clasico or the Champions League final.
The Italian coach focuses on scoring three very important points against the Crimson team and he conveyed this to his players, because they know that Real Madrid’s victory tomorrow will allow them to expand the difference to 10 points with Sevilla, the team that drew 1-1 with Rayo Vallecano this Sunday.
However, Davide Ancelotti, Carlo, warned that Ferland Mendy, Casemiro and Eder Militao risk being suspended, so if they see the yellow card in the Mallorca match, they will automatically miss the “Clásico” due to the accumulation of warnings.
This situation reminds us of what happened in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Champions League, which was held at the Parc des Princes, where Casemiro and Mendy were shown a yellow card and both missed the second leg.
Carlo Ancelotti knows that these three players are essential to his playing system, especially in the Clasico that could practically eliminate the league competitions in favor of Real Madrid.
Despite this, the Italian coach will not alternate in the case of Casemiro and Mendy, as they have not played for a week, but in the case of the Brazilian central defense, Ancelotti is evaluating the possibility of giving him a rest and using Nacho Fernandez instead.
