Real Madrid visit Borussia Dortmund in what could be a crucial clash in the Champions League Group Stage. While Los Blancos have been mediocre in La Liga, Dortmund are leading the Bundesliga.

However, the German side will be the team desperate to earn the win in Tuesday’s clash, as their loss in the opening game against Tottenham could put them in a tough spot if they don’t take care o their home-field advantage against Madrid.

Luckily enough for Zidane, Toni Kroos will be available after missing Saturday’s match against Alaves. Gareth Bale and Luka Modric are also expected to make their return to the starting lineup, meaning that Marco Asensio will most likely come off the bench.

Nacho will be playing on the left side of the defense and will have to prove that his defensive skills are good enough to keep Yarmolenko under control. Carvajal will also have to bounce back from his poor start to the season by facing Phillip.
