Predicted Lineups
Match Preview
Real Madrid and Marseille’s first meeting in 16 years comes on the first matchday of the 2025–26 Champions League league phase.
All eyes will be on Xabi Alonso as he spearheads his first Champions League match in charge of Real Madrid. The pressure is on the new boss to lead the Spanish giants back to European glory after they crashed out of the competition at the hands of Arsenal in last season’s quarterfinals.
Los Blancos’ first test comes against an opponent they have a perfect record against: Marseille. Real Madrid have managed four victories in their four meetings with the French outfit, giving them the historic edge over Roberto De Zerbi’s side ahead of Tuesday’s bout.
Still, over a decade has passed since Real Madrid and Marseille clashed on Europe’s biggest stage, leaving the door open for a new, exiting matchup between the two clubs.
Real Madrid Team News
Real Madrid confirmed Jude Bellingham and Eduardo Camavinga are available for selection come Tuesday’s clash with Marseille. Although it is unlikely either player will feature from the start in their first game back from injury, it is still a major boost for the Spanish giants to have the two midfielders on the bench.
Alonso will also have Dean Huijsen to call upon despite the defender’s red card at the weekend; the awaiting suspension for the Spain international only applies to La Liga fixtures.
Antonio Rüdiger, who suffered a serious thigh injury during the September international break, joins Ferland Mendy and Endrick on the sidelines.
Marseille Team News
Marseille will be without new signing Nayef Aguerd for their Champions League opener. The center back confirmed on social media that he is in concussion protocol following his debut at the weekend and cannot feature against Real Madrid.
Without the former West Ham defender available, De Zerbi will have to choose between Leonardo Balerdi and CJ Egan-Riley, who is back from his Ligue 1 suspension, to get the nod alongside Benjamin Pavard.
Amine Gouiri also remains a doubt after needing a first-half substitution on Friday after a collision with Lorient’s Bamo Meïté. If the striker is not fit to feature from the start, expect Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to lead Marseille’s line.
