Real Madrid will bring back Casemiro for their Champions League semi-final second leg vs Manchester City but will be without David Alaba, Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed.
Madrid were without injury doubt Casemiro for the first leg at the Etihad as he made the bench, but manager Ancelotti has indicated that the Brazilian midfielder will start the second leg at the Bernabeu on Wednesday, with Real 4-3 down on aggregate.
However, they will definitely be without key centre-back Alaba, who is injured, with Nacho set to replace him at the back as Ancelotti also suggested that his side will not drop deeper in a bid to stop City's attacking threats.
