Real Madrid have published their starting lineup for the upcoming match against Benfica in the Champions League.

Real Madrid starting XI: Courtois; Valverde, Asencio, Huijsen, Carreras; Tchouaméni, Güler, Bellingham; Mastantuono, Mbappé and Vinicius.

Benfica starting XI (TBC): Trubin; Dedic, Otamendi, Tomás Araújo, Dahl; Barrenechea, Barreiro; Prestianni, Sudakov, Aursnes and Pavlidis.

As expected, Tchouameni returns to the starting lineup after missing the match against Villarreal. Other than that, Arbeloa’s team has found some consistency, so there are no changes in his lineup as Real Madrid try to clinch their presence in the Round of 16 of the Champions League.
