⚪️ Madrid’s Composure vs De Zerbi’s Press: So far, Madrid have been great at dictating terms to opp0nents, barring the second half against Sociedad when they were down to 10 men. This is because teams would usually sit back and let them have the ball. Against Marseille, though, this changes. De Zerbi’s system, like Alonso’s, is high intensity and high press, which means Madrid’s composure and speed of moving the ball will be tested. ⚪️ Carreras vs Greenwood: So far, Carreras has come good against all his opp0nents, most notably a subbed-on Kubo. However, Greenwood is going to be better than anyone he has faced so far and is Marseille’s most threat€ning player. Last season Greenwood had 28 G/A, and this season he has already started really well with 5 G/A in 4 games. If Carreras wins this battl€, it will significantly shift the game in Madrid’s favour. ⚪️ Madrid’s Subs vs Marseille’s Defence: It’s no secret that Alonso is utilizing his squad very well so far. One of the key subs he relies on is swapping the wingers to run at tired opp0sition full-backs. This is bound to happen in this game as well, and how Marseille manages it will be key. Their best bet will be to score early, as Alonso will happily take a 0-0 scoreline until he makes his first rotation. ⚪️ Mbappé vs Marseille’s Defence: With a high press also comes high r!sk. Mbappé is in red-hot form and will look to expl0it every opportunity to run in behind the defence. Plus, he will be moving across the pitch, making a man-marking situation impossible. If Marseille do not have a clear plan to manage him, there will be no stopping him from scoring unless they choose to sit back. Overall: Historically, this fixture has been high scoring, with over four goals in three out of the four times they have faced off in the UCL. With both teams now playing expansive football, this trend can be expected to continue, making it an exciting watch. However, the longer the game goes without Marseille scoring, the more Madrid will fancy their chances. #VC
