Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso could have a selection quandary at center back on Sunday night at Elche. With Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger and Dani Carvajal out, along with Aurelien Tchouameni (a midfielder who he can slot in at the position when short-handed), Alonso is running low on options. He’ll have to start Raul Asencio or David Alaba this weekend.

Other than that, the first team probably picks itself, more or less. Elche are a newly promoted side, so at first glance this might seem like a cake walk for the table toppers. However, Elche are actually mid-table, and they came to play this season, so don’t just brush them off your shoulder so easily.
