UEFA Champions League · 07:40:56 - Friday, 6 November 2026

Real Madrid are predicted to field Vinicius Junior and Federico Valverde in a 4-2-3-1 formation for their UEFA Champions League match against AEK Athens on November 4, 2026.

According to a lineup preview from Madrid Universal, the Brazilian winger and Uruguayan midfielder are expected to start as part of an attacking setup designed to break down the Greek side's defense.

The predicted formation suggests a balanced approach with two defensive midfielders supporting three attacking midfielders behind a lone striker. Vinicius is likely to operate on the left flank, while Valverde could play in a more advanced midfield role.
