He real Madrid premiere this afternoon 2024 receiving at the Bernabéu Majorca (7:15 p.m.). Ancelotti’s recently renewed team wants to ring in the New Year with a victory that will secure its leadership and also give it the honorary title of winter champion. A victory that does not serve to increase the record, but serves psychologically to reflect the success of the early part of the season. To achieve all this, the Real Madridd must win a Majorca who came to the Bernabéu ready to go to war and destroy the party for the whites.
This 2024 started with good news for Ancelotti who recovered for this match against Mallorca Vinicius, Carvajal and Arda Güler. No doubt, a relief for the Italian coach seeing how the infirmary was empty. Carvajal will be the starter, as Ancelotti himself has stepped up, while the unknown is Vinicius. The Brazilian has fully recovered from his muscle injury and was praised by the coach in the media, the truth is that he has the numbers to be a starter. Arda Güler, for his part, may have his first minutes as a Real Madrid player, but no one at Real Madrid is in a rush for that to happen. They preferred to wait for the young Turk to be wounded again.
The future owner is Luna, which raises the debate on the white cause. This time, Ancelotti didn’t even have to choose because Kepa had just recovered from the flu and that opened the doors for Lunin. Some doors are also open for Tchouaméni, but to play as a center back alongside Rüdiger.

They beat Sevilla and Osasuna and drew with Almería, results that gave them a break in the standings. Their pending issue is to win at home because away from Son Moix they just beat Celta. Of the 27 points at stake they added 6 as visitors, after one win, three draws and five defeats.
Aguirre He cannot count on the sanctioned player against Real Madrid Jaume Costa, who saw a fifth yellow card against Osasuna. The vacancy could be filled by Pablo Maffeo, who will also leave his right-back position to Uruguayan Giovanni González.
The most sensitive loss of the Mallorcan team to face the clash against Ancelotti’s team is its top scorer Vedat Muriqi, who has missed the last six games with a muscle injury. The Kosovar was last season’s leading scorer with 15 goals; On this course he celebrated 4, one below Mallorcan Abdón Prats. Aguirre recovers Mascarell and Lato, but not Valjent
