AS: Bellingham will not start against Bayern, Guler & Thiago will be in XI

According to the latest report from AS, Bellingham will not start against Bayern, and Real Madrid's midfield combination will be Valverde, Thiago Pitarch, Tchouameni and Güler.

It is reported that Bellingham will not start against Bayern, and the club is very cautious in handling his injury. His last start was on February 1, when he felt a tear in his left hamstring just 8 minutes into the game against Vallecano.

At Real Madrid, especially at the urging of team doctor Niko Mihic, Bellingham went to London for further examination in order to get the most accurate diagnosis. This injury kept him out for 49 days. He has now recovered, but the club still wants to avoid any risks.

Coupled with the attacking combination led by Vinicius and Mbappe, Real Madrid's midfield shows a promising picture. At least, it was this lineup that defeated Manchester City and Atletico Madrid: Valverde, Thiago Pitarch, Tchouameni and Güler.

Valverde has enough space, range of sideline activity and freedom to play, while also assisting the full-backs in defense. Thiago has played a crucial role since his appearance, Tchouameni is the undisputed midfield core, and Güler has won a starting spot at key moments.
