Carlo Ancelotti has suggested that he could use the same starting line-up which trounced Barcelona against Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-final first-leg. Real Madrid will welcome Frank Lampard's side to the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday evening as the sides hope to return to winning ways.
The Blues are now four games without a win following their defeat to Wolves at the weekend, while the Spanish giants lost 3-2 at home to to Villarreal in La Liga on Saturday. Real Madrid made wholesale changes following their El Clasico triumph, resting Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Federico Valverde in midfield, as well as Antonio Rudiger, Eduardo Camavinga and Dani Carvajal in defence.
Chelsea also rested numerous players ahead of their clash with Los Blancos. N'Golo Kante was omitted from the squad as a precaution, while Ben Chilwell, Mykhailo Mudryk and Christian Pulisic started on the bench.
