After taking on Fiorentina in Austria last weekend, Real Madrid’s preseason under new manager José Mourinho stays in central Europe as Los Blancos face Ferencváros in Hungary.
The meeting represents a rare matchup between the two sides who last met over 30 years ago in the group stage of the 1995–96 Champions League. A Raúl hat trick and Iván Zamorano double saw Madrid run out 6–1 winners in the home leg, though Los Blancos were held to a 1–1 draw in Budapest.
There’s less at stake this time around, though there will be plenty of Madrid stars, new and old, looking to prove their worth to the manager ahead of the new season.
The likes of Vinícius Jr and Brahim Díaz could feature after missing last weekend’s run-out, while young stars like Endrick will be desperate to impress.
Here’s how supporters around the world can watch the action unfold in Budapest.
