Projected Lineups: Manchester City – Real Madrid

Real Madrid take on Manchester City hoping to extend their winning run and put one foot in the final of the Champions League.

Zinedine Zidane is expected to display his usual starting lineup, as Cristiano Ronaldo and Daniel Carvajal have both completely recovered from their injuries.

The only doubt for the Frenchman is whether he will be able to display Karim Benzema, who is suffering from muscle problems. However, the latest reports from Spain suggest the striker will be ready for the crucial match against the Citizens.

Thus, Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos and Marcelo are expected to feature in defence. Casemiro should return to the lineup after missing Rayo’s match through suspension. He will join Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema are expected to form the forward line. Keylor Navas will keep goal as usual.

This is Real Madrid’s projected starting eleven: Navas; Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo.

This is Manchester City’s projected starting eleven: Hart; Sagna, Kompany, Mangala, Clichy; Fernandinho, Fernando; Navas, De Bruyne, Silva; Aguero.
