Real Madrid team news

Having returned to training, Jude Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni could be available for selection, but David Alaba, Brahim Diaz, Eduardo Camavinga and Dani Ceballos are all confined to the infirmary.

Kylian Mbappe is in line for his Champions League debut with Real Madrid, with Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr to also make the XI.

Real Madrid possible XI: Courtois; Carvajal, Eder Militao, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Modric; Rodrygo, Bellingham, Vinicius Jr; Mbappe.

Stuttgart team news

Yet to recover from a muscle injury from his time with Burnley, Ameen Al-Dakhil will have to wait for his Stuttgart debut. He is joined in the treatment room by Leonidas Stergiou, Justin Diehl, Nikolas Nartey and Frans Kratzig.

Ermedin Demirovic is the main threat in attack, alongside Deniz Undav, supported by Jamie Leweling and Fabian Rieder from the wide areas.

Stuttgart possible XI: Nubel; Vagnoman, Chase, Chabot, Mittelstadt; Leweling, Karazor, Stiller, Rieder; Demirovic, Undav.

In their most recent La Liga outing, Los Blancos continued their unbeaten run with a 2-0 victory over Real Sociedad, thanks to penalties converted by Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe.

On the other hand, VfB Stuttgart secured their first Bundesliga win of the new season, beating Borussia Monchengladbach 3-1 on the road in their last match.

Brahim Diaz joined the likes of David Alaba, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, and Dani Ceballos on the sidelines after picking up a muscle injury that will see him miss up to eight weeks.

Jude Bellingham could return for this game after getting back to training last week, which will serve as a major boost for Madrid. Kylian Mbappe will make his Champions League debut for Real Madrid in this game, having already scored 48 goals in 73 appearances in the competition.

Ameen Al Dakhil is yet to make his debut for VfB Stuttgart after signing from Burnley this summer. Nikolas Nartey and Frans Kratzig are also likely to remain sidelined till October. VfB Stuttgart will hope their in-form strikers Ermedin Demirovic and Denis Undav turn up against Real Madrid to get them anything out of the match.

Real Madrid, perennial giants of European football, come into the game with a squad brimming with talent, including Vinícius Júnior and Jude Bellingham leading the charge. Bellingham is expected to be available, along with Aurélien Tchouaméni, neither of whom played over the weekend. But the biggest draw is newly signed French star Mbappe, who is also expected to start on Tuesday.

VfB Stuttgart are the firm underdogs (+800) in the contest. But the Bundesliga side has had impressive form of late, with players like Serhou Guirassy and Chris Führich standing out under manager Sebastian Hoeneß. They will try to exploit gaps in Madrid’s defense in their attempt at an upset.

Real Madrid begins this campaign trying to defend its 2023-24 Champions League title, which it took back from Manchester City, even defeating their English rivals along the way. Real Madrid has claimed the continental title no fewer than 15 times, more than double any other team, including five times in the last 10 years.
