Real Madrid
Jude Bellingham, who missed the first leg because of an ankle injury, is available to feature in the second leg. The home team only have three absentees, Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao and David Alaba, who have been on the sidelines for a while now. Courtois and Militao could return to the mix next month.
Real Madrid will once again line up in the 4-4-2 formation, with Andriy Lunin in goal. Dani Carvajal and Ferland Mendy will feature as the full-backs. Aurelien Tchouameni will continue as one of the centre-backs alongside Antonio Rudiger.
The back four will look for a clean sheet as it will guarantee their progress to the next round. Eduardo Camavinga will be the defensive midfielder, while Federico Valverde and Toni Kroos will be in support of the Frenchman. Bellingham will continue as the attacking midfielder. And, in attack, it will once again be the dependable partnership of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes.
Probable Lineup (4-4-2): Lunin; Carvajal, Tchouameni, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr.
RB Leipzig
Marco Rose’s men will be without the services of Lukas Klostermann. Apart from him, they do not have any injury concerns. Meanwhile, Mohamed Simakan is suspended from taking part in this fixture after picking up a milestone yellow in the first leg. Xaver Schlager is back in the mix after missing the Bundesliga game against VfL Bochum last time out due to suspension.
The visitors will line up in a 4-4-2 formation, which tends to be a 4-2-2-2 at times. Peter Gulacsi will be in goal for Leipzig, while in the heart of the defence, Castello Lukeba will pair up with Willi Orban. Meanwhile, Benjamin Henrichs and David Raum will be the full-backs.
Xavi Simons and Dani Olmo will take charge on the flanks. They will provide width to their attacks, while Amadou Haidara and Xaver Schlager will feature in a more central role in the midfield. The duo will look to control the tempo of the game. Finally, the in-form Lois Openda will feature alongside Benjamin Sesko in the strike partnership.
Probable Lineup (4-4-2): Gulacsi; Henrichs, Orban, Lukeba, Raum; Olmo, Haidara, Schlager, Simons; Openda, Sesko
Prediction: Real Madrid 3-1 RB Leipzig
