Antonio Conte’s Chelsea side got their campaign off to a flier as they beat Liverpool 1-0 on Thursday morning BST.
A foul-tempered clash that included a red card for Cesc Fabregas featured very little in the way of attacking football and was settled via the head of Gary Cahill.
The win was the third on the bounce for new manager Antonio Conte’s reign following earlier successes over RZ Pellets and Atus Ferlach, but there’s little doubt that the Champions League winners will prove the stiffest of challenges for the Blues.
Nonetheless, the Italian manager has already instilled a strong backbone into the team with the side looking very physical in the win over the Reds, and a result against a side of the calibre of Real Madrid would certainly be a confidence boost as the new Premier League season fast approaches.
The former Juventus manager will hope to continue that streak on Saturday in Michigan.
Team News
The Italian looks like putting out another strong looking side as he tinkers with formation, giving Eden Hazard and Diego Costa another run out.
The former Juventus manager will hope to continue that streak on Saturday in Michigan.
Real Madrid meanwhile went down 3-1 to PSG in their opening game. Zinedine Zidane named a strong line-up with the likes of Marcelo, Jese, Casemiro and Alvaro Morato all featuring.
The French legend also handed a debut to his son Enzo with his son Luca, 18, also in the squad.
Big names Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo are missing from the squad and won’t feature while Sergio Ramos has just joined the squad and is unlikely to be involved.
Manager Quotes
The French boss was disappointed with the defeat to PSG in the opening game and will hope his side can kick on.
“I’m happy with the work, but not the defeat, of course. We can never lose. Even a friendly. This is Madrid. But we’ll pick up the pace and then La Liga is very long and we have to start well” Zidane said.
“Maybe we lacked a little aggression for a strong rival. Especially in the first half.
We had the ball and we had chances. Tactically we have to work more and find the automatic moves. We’ll do it little by little.”
Match Odds
It should be an interesting affair, with both bosses set to make changes its a bit of a difficult one to predict, with Real Madrid available to back at a tantalising 7/5, which should prove plenty big enough for punters, while the draw at 5/2 looks a worthy price.
