This season is already turning to be one of turbulence at Manchester United even though the league season is still two weeks away. Jose Mourinho has now been made the first manager to be sacked as his continues to moan about a lack of signings whenever he has the chance to.
The Red Devils have not had the ideal preparation for the new season. Most of their star players are still on a break following their participation at the World Cup, while they have struggled in all their preseason matches so far and have won none of their friendlies in regulation time.
The Red Devils were beaten 4-1 by Liverpool the last time out and they would be looking to avoid such an embarrassing loss in this game again, but do they have the power to stop the European Champions?
Real Madrid would be playing a match for the first time without Cristiano Ronaldo on their team sheet since 2009, and Julen Lopetegui would be hoping other stars like Isco and Gareth Bale would step up and take them forward.
Los Blancos have not played any friendly until now, but they seem prepared for the task ahead. Vinicius Junior has joined up with the club, and the Brazilian prodigy is set to play a starring role for them this season, while the likes of Dani Cabelos would be looking to impress their new manager.
