Salzburg v Real Madrid: lineup, statistics, preview
Salzburg v Real Madrid Team News
Madrid will continue to monitor Killian Mbappe’s fitness before the game.
The French striker was admitted to a hospital with acute gastroenteritis last week, but was released on Saturday. He missed his second match against Pachuca in the Madrid tournament, but Alonso refused to rule him out of the Salzburg match.
However, it appears that MBappe is very unlikely to have a very low risk, especially as high temperatures are predicted again in Philadelphia tomorrow night.
Gonzalo Garcia starts again in advance as it could potentially fit enough for Mbappe to sit on the bench.
Alonso has to make at least one change as defender Raul Asensio was stopped following an early red card against Pachuca. Antonio Rudiger is likely to replace him as he builds fitness after strengthening his injuries.
A knee injury to Salzburg midfielder Kawamura Takum means he left the US and returned to Austria.
Alexander Schlager and Moussa Yeo are also on the show, but Oscar Groke has returned to replace Sota Kitano.
