    Home Advantage and Injury Challenges

    Real Madrid's home advantage cannot be overlooked, as they have gone 39 matches unbeaten at the Santiago Bernabéu. Their last home loss occurred in April 2023 against Villarreal. Nonetheless, they face adversity: star goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is sidelined with an injury, necessitating the continued use of Andriy Lunin between the posts.
