• Venue: Tivoli Stadium, Tirol

Real Madrid step up their preparations for the start of the 2025/26 La Liga campaign as they play their first 2025 preseason match against WSG Tirol in what should be an enticing clash on Tuesday evening. The WSF Tirol vs Real Madrid clash will take place at the Tivoli Stadium and should be a highly entertaining clash. Here is our WSG Tirol vs Real Madrid Preview. WSG Tirol have the perfect opportunity to prove their quality against one of the biggest teams in football. They have actually begun the 2025/26 Austrian Bundesliga campaign impressively, winning their last two games and being on top of the league standings after the first few matchdays. Despite his side's dominance in the league, Philipp Semlic is aware of the daunting task ahead for his side. He will need to shape his side to maintain a really stubborn defensive shape to frustrate the visitors, and needs to be ruthless in their quick counter-attacks to be able to pop up a surprise. Real Madrid are going to be playing their first preseason match only a few days before the start of the league campaign. Los Blancos have won four of their five matches under Xabi Alonso so far, having been eliminated in the FIFA Club World Cup semifinal by PSG. Alonso has the final opportunity to try out some new aspects of his playing system before the La Liga begins. He will urge his players to play some attractive, passing football and be clinical in the final third. He will need them to keep a sturdy defensive shape, but the priority will be to link up smartly in the attack to put away chances and gain momentum for the new league campaign.

WSG Tirol Team News

Philipp Semlic is at least fortunate enough to have the majority of his squad available for this game. However, he will be missing defender Lukas Sulzbacher as he is still out of action with a knee injury that he suffered last season.

Real Madrid Team News

Xabi Alonso still doesn't have a fully fit squad and is going to be missing quite a few key players for this. Eduardo Camavinga recently sustained an ankle injury and is ruled out. The likes of David Alaba (meniscus injury), Jude Bellingham (shoulder), Ferland Mendy (muscle), and Endrick (hamstring) are all unavailable too.

Key Players to Watch in WSG Tirol vs Real Madrid

Moritz Wels (WSG Tirol)

Moritz Wels has stood out as one of Tirol's best players in their impressive start to the 2025/26 season and played a key role in their last few wins. He has scored two goals in as many Austrian Bundesliga matches so far, outperforming his 1.25 xG (expected goals) and also maintaining a 100% dribble success rate so far. The 20-year-old will look to trouble the Real Madrid defenders with his clever movement and dribbling skills, aiming to slither his way into the danger areas. Wels will be tasked to create more chances by refining his final pass, but will mostly be determined to get to the end of chances and ruthlessly convert them to make a name for himself at Real Madrid's expense.

Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)

Kylian Mbappe will be playing his first match as the new Real Madrid no.7 against Tiron and will aim to prove why he deserves this iconic shirt. Mbappe scored 31 goals in the 2024/25 La Liga campaign for Los Blancos, impressively overperforming his 25.93 xG in the competition as well.

He will be aiming to prepare himself for the new league campaign with a clinical performance against Tirol and test his skills against their defenders. Mbappe will look to trouble the defenders with his speedy runs and latch onto the clever final passes of his teammates to ruthlessly finish off chances and gain some goalscoring momentum.

WSG Tirol vs Real Madrid Prediction

Even though there is a clear difference in quality between the two squads, Tirol's impressive form and Real Madrid's lack of match sharpness can create a thrilling bout. There should be plenty of scoring chances on offer for both teams, and the fans should expect an end-to-end, entertaining match.

However, the sheer quality of Real Madrid's attacking talent and their desperation to get a big win should make things too hot to handle for Tirol. Xabi Alonso's side should fight their way to a compelling win before the start of the new La Liga season. Here is our WSG Tirol vs Real Madrid prediction.

Predicted Score: WSG Tirol 1-3 Real Madrid
