Just nine days after an embarrassing defeat to Barcelona in El Clásico, Real Madrid returns to Champions League action against AC Milan.

Nothing has gone right for Real Madrid in the last two weeks. The defending Spanish champions conceded four goals at home to Barcelona on Oct. 26, giving their biggest rivals an even larger lead atop the La Liga standings. Then, Vinícius Júnior controversially lost the 2024 Ballon d’Or to Rodri on Oct. 28.

With so much disappointment surrounding the club to close out October, Los Blancos must now turn their attention to the Champions League. Carlo Ancelotti’s former club is on its way to Madrid where it will look to hand Real Madrid its second home loss in as many games.

The good news for the hosts is Rodrygo made Real Madrid’s squad. The Brazilian suffered a thigh injury in the team’s 5–2 victory over Borussia Dortmund on Oct. 22, but recovered quickly enough to possibly feature in Tuesday’s clash. Thibaut Courtois, David Alaba and Dani Carvajal still remain on the sidelines due to various injuries.
