Alonso and Real Madrid Look for More Fluidity on Trip to Oviedo

Franco Mastantuono is set to make his first start for Real Madrid in La Liga matchday 2 against Real Oviedo after a promising debut off the bench.

  • On Sunday night, Real Madrid will travel to face newly-promoted Real Oviedo at the Estadio Carlos Tartiere before a sell-out 30,000 crowd.
  • Real Oviedo returned to La Liga after nearly 25 years by beating Mirandes in the play-off final, making their Sunday match against Real Madrid a gala occasion for the newly-promoted side.
  • After making his debut on Tuesday, Franco Mastantuono, 18-year-old Argentine, is reportedly set for his first start on Sunday after impressing and signing for just over 63 million euros.
  • Mbappé's form matters given he finished last season with 44 goals from 59 matches, and he converted the penalty that secured Real Madrid's opener on Tuesday.
  • Alonso will hope for a more fluid display as his side continue their opening run, with summer signings Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, and Alvaro Carreras already debuting.
