Option 1: best available XI
Courtois; Carvajal, Casemiro, Vallejo, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinicius Jr.
The first option is to field the strongest available eleven to get the job done in La Liga.
One point against Espanyol would be enough to claim the title, and this squad is capable of winning Saturday's game comfortably!
Option 2: squad rotation
Courtois; Vazquez, Casemiro, Vallejo, Marcelo; Ceballos, Camavinga, Isco; Asensio, Benzema, Vinicius Jr.
There are just a few days left before the second leg against Manchester City, so rotating the squad makes complete sense.
Ancelotti could go with an experimental midfield trio of Dani Ceballos, Eduardo Camavinga and Isco while Marcelo and Lucas Vazquez would replace our regular wing-backs.
Option 3: heavy squad rotation
Lunin; Vazquez, Vallejo, Gila, Marcelo; Ceballos, Camavinga, Isco; Asensio, Mariano, Rodrygo.
Finally, we could just focus on the Man City clash and take absolutely no risks, putting a fully-rotated starting eleven on Saturday.
Andriy Lunin could have his first league appearance of the season while 21-year-old Mario Gila, who is on the team's squad list, would start at the back alongside Jesus Vallejo.
Mariano would replace Karim Benzema upfront.
