Real Madrid Predicted Lineup vs. Real Sociedad | OneFootball

Real Madrid play their second game in four days since returning to action from the March international break when they take on Real Sociedad in the Copa del Rey semifinals.

Los Blancos hold a one goal lead on aggregate coming into the second leg thanks to Endrick. They're favored to advance to the final where they would await one of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Carlo Ancelotti faces a tough test as he continues to navigate injuries and accumulating minutes heading into the final stretch of the season. Real Madrid trail Barcelona by three points in the La Liga title race and face Arsenal in the Champions League quarterfinals.

Ancelotti could rotate in key areas, but they should still have enough available to get past Real Sociedad.
