Today's live stream of Real Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund will give the Los Blancos a chance to avenge their loss in the Champions League final in June.

Dani Carvajal decided the game then, but the veteran's absence is a concern after Madrid's shocking defeat to Lille in this competition last time out. Los Blancos lost a number of experienced heads this summer, and with Carvajal out indefinitely, Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe up top will carry an additional burden.

Karim Adeyemi scored a hat trick in the first half to crush Celtic 7-1. Nuri Sahin's Dortmund had a mediocre start to their domestic league campaign, but they did not lack firepower. Serhoud Girassie and Jamie Gittens scored goals for fun.

Real Madrid team: Courtois, Lucas Vazquez, Eder Militao, Rüdiger, Mendy, Valverde, Modric, Bellingham, Rodrigo, Mbappe, Vinicius Junior

Borussia Dortmund team: Kovel, Ryerson,. Sule, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini, Sabitzer, Nmecha, Gitten, Brandt, Mullen, Girassi
