Real Madrid in Borussia Dortmund

Preview of the match for Real Madrid V Borussia Dortmund

Two of the best teams in Europe face each other again in the quarterfinal clash of the Club World Cup this Saturday when Real Madrid meets Borussia Dortmund in New Jersey.

A family rivalry of the Champions League and previously in the competition, the bets are higher this time, since the winner wins a semifinal place against Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain.

Real Madrid has been strong since its opening raffle with Al-Hilal, passing through Pachuca and Red Bull Salzburg before seeing Juventus in the last 16.

Under Xabi Alonso, Spanish giants look at a contender for their sixth crown of the Club World Cup.

Dortmund, meanwhile, has enjoyed a great change under Niko Kovac. After finishing the Bundesliga season with style and overcoming their group of the Club World Cup, they defeated Monterrey with an early double of the striker in form Serhou Guirsy.

With an impulse behind them and only a loss in their last 10 games, the German team is a dangerous opponent, even if the story is strongly leaning in favor of Madrid.

Real Madrid team news V Borussia Dortmund

The Real Madrid Chief, Xabi Alonso, has changed between four and a three during the tournament, which makes his selection approach less predictable.

Kylian Mbappe is back in the fold after the disease, but the young Gonzalo García has presented a strong case to remain in the XI with four goal contributions so far.

It is likely that Jude Bellingham will begin against his former club once again, although his brother Jobe will be lost by Dortmund through the suspension.

The injuries continue to limit both squads, with Madrid missing Eduardo Camavingo, David Alaba, Endrick and Ferland Mendy. Dortmund does not have Emre, Salih Ozcan and Nico Schlotterbeck.
