Once again, Nicolas Otamendi, Federico Fazio, Marcos Rojo and Gabriel Mercado should occupy the defensive zones. However, a little twist will be introduced in the middle of the pitch, with AC Milan superstar, Lucas Biglia joining Javier Mascherano to form a 2-man defensive midfield.
Lionel Messi should start on the right flank and Angel Di Maria should occupy the left. Juventus attacker, Paulo Dybala should be deployed as a supporting striker to Manchester City's Sergio Aguero.
