Champions League: Lille v Betis, Dortmund v VillarrealCarabao Cup: Palace v Middlesbrough, Sunderland v HullLive scores | Read Football Daily | And email DanielInter, meanwhile, look solid. They’ve won three from three in Serie A, and will, I think, look to clutter the centre of the pitch. That’s another reason I’d like to have seen Diomande on from the start, but Mourinho has – unusually for him – done without a defensively-minded midfielder. I’m looking forward to seeing how Curtis Jones does, as I think he’s a good player who’ll thrive with regular selection and greater responsibility. And there’s no disputing the danger Inter offer up front; I don’t fancy either Madrid centre-back against Thuram and Martinez.Our main focus here, though, will be on Madrid v Inter. Mourinho’s men lost at Betis last weekend, and are without the suspended Eduardo Camvinga, Bernardo Silva and Arda Guler. As such Trent Alexander-Arnold comes in on the right of the central three – a move I doubt Aurelien Tchouameni likes all that much. I can’t say I think Alexander-Arnold is much use in that position – as Gary Neville once noted, most right-backs are failed midfielders – but he’s capable of creating something from nothing. I guess I’d quite like to see Yan Diomande on the right, but i’m not surprised Mourinho wants the extra body in midfield that Brahim Diaz can become. Continue reading...
Real Madrid open their Champions League campaign against Inter Milan, where Kylian Mbappe will lead his team at the Santiago Bernabeu. Real Madrid host Inter Milan to open their 2026-27 Champions League campaign at the Santiago Bernabeu, with Kylian Mbappe set to lead the line for Jose Mourinho’s side in the opening match of the new league phase. The Frenchman arrives with a personal milestone in reach, needing just two goals against Inter to move above club legend Raul and into fifth place on the competition’s all-time scoring list. The match carries extra weight for Real Madrid, who are looking to bounce back after a damaging loss to Real Betis in LaLiga over the weekend. A strong start at the Champions League, would go a long way toward settling any nerves after that setback. Inter Milan arrive at the Bernabeu as one of the competition’s most consistent recent performers, having reached the final in 2025 before falling short. Under their own management setup this season, the Italian side will look to Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram to provide the attacking edge that has made them one of Europe’s most dangerous counterattacking teams over the past two years. REAL MADRID 🤝 CHAMPIONS LEAGUE pic.twitter.com/uLz3m8zTIV— Real Madrid C.F. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@realmadriden) September 8, 2026 Real Madrid confirmed lineup Real Madrid will be without Arda Guler, Eduardo Camavinga and Bernardo Silva, all unavailable through suspension, forcing Mourinho into a midfield reshuffle. Real Madrid confirmed starting XI: Thibaut Courtois; Denzel Dumfries, Ibrahima Konate, Dean Huijsen, Marc Cucurella; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Federico Valverde; Brahim Diaz, Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior; Kylian Mbappe. Inter Milan confirmed lineup Inter Milan should field a largely settled back line, with Alessandro Bastoni anchoring the defense. In midfield, Nicolo Barella and Hakan Calhanoglu are expected to control the tempo, while Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram once again lead the line up top. Inter Milan confirmed starting XI: Josep Martinez; Benjamin Pavard, Yann Bisseck, Alessandro Bastoni; Andy Diouf, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Curtis Jones, Carlos Augusto; Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram.
Arda Guler and Bernardo Silva will both miss Real Madrid's Champions League opener against Inter Milan due to red-card suspensions carried over from last season. Real Madrid will be without Arda Guler and Bernardo Silva for their Champions League opener against Inter Milan, with both players serving suspensions carried over from red cards picked up in their final European appearances of last season. Eduardo Camavinga is also unavailable under the same circumstance, having been sent off by a second yellow card in the 87th minute of last season’s quarter-final second leg against Bayern Munich. Under UEFA regulations, yellow-card suspensions are wiped between seasons, but red-card bans carry forward, meaning Jose Mourinho has no way around the absences barring an exceptional pardon, which has not been granted in either case. The Portuguese coach will instead turn to Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde to anchor his midfield against an Inter side eager to make an early statement in the new league phase. 📋✅ ¡Nuestros convocados!🆚 @Inter_es pic.twitter.com/2hmtAAD7Kd— Real Madrid C.F. (@realmadrid) September 8, 2026 Where do Guler and Silva’s suspensions come from? Guler‘s suspension stems from a sending-off in the same quarter-final second leg against Bayern Munich in which Camavinga was also dismissed, with the Turkish midfielder picking up two yellow cards of his own. The one-match ban that followed had gone unserved by the end of last season and now carries into Real Madrid’s first group-phase match of the new campaign. Bernardo Silva‘s case carries a layer of irony, since his red card came while he was still playing for Manchester City against Real Madrid in last season’s round of 16, when he was sent off for deliberately handling the ball to stop a goal, a decision that led to Vinicius Junior converting the resulting penalty. Having since completed a move to the Bernabeu, the Portuguese midfielder now finds himself suspended for his own team’s Champions League opener because of that incident.

Under the leadership of returning manager José Mourinho, Los Blancos are desperate to end a two-year trophy drought and reassert their dominance in Europe. With a perfect start to their domestic season, the pressure is on to translate that form to the continental stage against elite opposition. Inter arrives in Madrid as the reigning Serie A and Coppa Italia winners, a team forged into a disciplined and resilient unit by manager Cristian Chivu. Despite their domestic success, which includes two Champions League final appearances in recent years, the Nerazzurri have a historically poor record on Spanish soil. This opening matchday clash represents a crucial opportunity for Inter to make a statement and prove they can compete with Europe’s very best away from home. Tactical Analysis & Match Context This fixture pits two clubs on different but equally ambitious paths. Real Madrid is in a transitional phase, integrating new signings like Yan Diomande and Bernardo Silva into a squad already brimming with talent. Mourinho’s primary challenge is to find a tactical balance that unleashes the attacking potential of Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Jude Bellingham while maintaining defensive structure. Their perfect domestic start has been impressive, but this match is their first true test. In contrast, Inter is a more settled and cohesive side, though they too have strengthened with additions like John Stones and Curtis Jones. Manager Cristian Chivu, a former defender under Mourinho, has instilled a modern, disciplined approach. The tactical battle will likely be a fascinating chess match, with Mourinho’s Real expected to concede possession and strike on the counter, while Chivu’s Inter will aim to control the midfield and suffocate Madrid’s creative players. The motivations for both teams are crystal clear. For Real Madrid, anything less than a victory at home in the Champions League is a disappointment. They are driven to reclaim European glory. For Inter, this is a chance to overcome their struggles in Spain and prove their mettle. A positive result at the Bernabéu would signal their intent to not just compete for, but win, the Champions League title this season. Head-to-Head Record & Historic Trends Historically, this has been a one-sided fixture. In 12 meetings, Real Madrid has dominated with seven victories, while Inter has managed only two wins, the last of which came in 1985. The Spanish giants are currently on a seven-game winning streak against their Italian counterparts, underscoring their long-standing superiority in this matchup. Recent encounters tell the same story. Real Madrid has won the last four competitive meetings between the clubs, all taking place in the Champions League group stage since 2020. These victories were decisive, with Madrid showcasing its ability to shut down the Inter attack and capitalize on its opportunities. Key trends from recent history are revealing. Inter has failed to score a single goal in their last three consecutive games against Real Madrid. Furthermore, Los Blancos have secured four wins to nil in the last five clashes. While Inter is a consistent scoring threat in Europe, having found the net in 17 of their last 19 Champions League matches, they will need to break a significant historical barrier to get on the scoresheet in Madrid.

While the Portugal captain remains one of the most decorated players in the history of the award, a remarkable pattern involving his international teammates has emerged over the past few years. Cristiano Ronaldo has found himself in an increasingly familiar position as another Ballon d’Or shortlist arrives without his name on it. While the Portugal captain remains one of the most decorated players in the history of the award, a remarkable pattern involving his international teammates has emerged over the past few years.

A new generation of stars continues to receive recognition on the biggest individual stage, creating an unusual chapter in Ronaldo’s extraordinary Ballon d’Or story. Ronaldo’s omission from the 2026 Ballon d’Or shortlist extends a run that would have been difficult to imagine during the peak of his career. The Al-Nassr forward had been a near-permanent presence among the nominees for almost two decades after first appearing on the shortlist in 2004. His absence began in 2023, when he failed to make the final 30 after moving to Saudi Arabia. Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias were among the Portugal players nominated that year, while Ronaldo watched the ceremony from outside the field of contenders. Cristiano Ronaldo #7 and Bernardo Silva #10 of Portugal react after conceding a goal. The same pattern continued in 2024, when Ronaldo again failed to make the shortlist. Ruben Dias and other Portugal internationals continued to receive recognition, showing that the national team’s influence on the award was growing even without its most famous player. The four-year pattern involving Portugal The trend becomes particularly striking when the four most recent editions are placed side by side. From 2023 through 2026, Ronaldo has failed to be nominated for the Ballon d’Or in every edition while at least one of his Portugal teammates has made the shortlist.
