Is Real Madrid v Juventus on TV tonight? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Champions League fixture | OneFootball

Real Madrid face Juventus in the Champions League league phase tonight, with Los Blancos looking to maintain their 100 per cent winning record in the competition against their continental rivals.

Xabi Alonso’s side recorded wins over Marseille and Kairat to begin their European campaign, and they already look well-placed to advance to the knockout stages with Kylian Mbappe in fine form.

Madrid are currently first in La Liga and they begin the day eighth in the league phase table, though tonight they will face one of the few teams in Europe with a decent record against them.

Juventus have won nine of the 21 meetings between the two sides but they arrive in the Spanish capital in mixed form of late, sitting seventh in Serie A and 24th in the league phase standings.

Igor Tudor’s side are already facing an uphill battle to make the knockout rounds after opening their campaign with two draws, and life will not get any easier for them at the Bernabeu as they face an in-form Los Blancos.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

Xabi Alonso may have four defensive absentees to contend with, as Antonio Rudiger, Dani Carvajal and Dean Huijsen all remain sidelined while David Alaba will have to be assessed after coming off injured against Getafe at the weekend. Dani Ceballos is the only midfield absentee, with the Spaniard not in the squad against Getafe.

In addition, while Ferland Mendy and Trent Alexander-Arnold are now back in training, Alonso may choose to rest them ahead of the weekend’s El Clasico.

Juventus will be without defensive duo Bremer and Juan Cabal, though Fabio Miretti and Edon Zhegrova are back in training and could both be part of the travelling squad.

Jonathan David will likely lead the attack again, supported by Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao on the wings, while the midfield trio of Teun Koopmeiners, Manuel Locatelli and Kephren Thuram will likely continue at the Bernabeu.
