Athletic Club team news

Ander Herrera is ruled out with a hamstring injury, but fellow midfielder Oihan Sancet is expected to overcome his ankle issue to start from the first whistle here, while Benat Prados is back from a ban.

Defensive duo Oscar de Marcos and Dani Vivian will eye recalls to the XI, with Athletic boss Ernesto Valverde torn between starting one of Julen Agirrezabala and Unai Simon in the final third.

Real Madrid team news

While Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao are ruled out for the rest of the season with ACL injuries, Ancelotti will remain without Eduardo Camavinga and Vinicius Junior due to muscle problems. David Alaba is also not expected to return to action before 2025.

Aurelien Tchouameni will be pushing for a start after recovering from his setback, along with the likes of Luka Modric, and Arda Guler, while Jude Bellingham is reportedly passed fit for the tie.
