Real Madrid vs Juventus lineups injuries and team news
Real Madrid Team News
Carlo Ancelotti will have to shuffle his deck due to key injuries and suspension. Midfield general Aurelien Tchouameni is suspended due to yellow card accumulation.
Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, Ferland Mendy, Andriy Lunin, and Dani Ceballos are all ruled out through injury.
On the positive side, Thibaut Courtois is expected to return between the sticks after recovering from a long-term injury.
Also, stars like Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr, and Antonio Rudiger are cleared to play after avoiding suspension.

Eder Militao: Back in the squad following a second ACL injury in his right knee. He may feature off the bench if Xabi Alonso chooses to manage his minutes carefully.
David Alaba: Sidelined with a left-leg muscle injury suffered recently in the USA; ruled out for the remainder of the tournament.
