Team news & squads
RB Leipzig team news
Mali international Amadou Haidara missing Sunday's 2-2 draw with Augsburg in the Bundesliga would be the biggest concern for Leipzig boss Marco Rose.
Other than that, Mohamed Simakan and Benjamin Henrichs are both a booking away from possibly serving a ban in the second-leg fixture.
Skipper Willi Orban missed the group games with a knee injury but has featured from the first whistle in the German side's last two outings. The Hungarian is likely to feature ahead of Lukas Klostermann, alongside Castello Lukeba at centre-back.
RB Leipzig possible XI: Gulacsi; Simakan, Lukeba, Orban, Raum; Olmo, Schlager, Kampl, Simons; Sesko, Openda

Real Madrid team news
It was a worrying sign that Jude Bellingham was forced off with a sprained ankle after the Englishman bagged a brace in the 4-0 domestic win over Girona at the weekend.
Even though Bellingham delivered a defiant injury message, Brahim Diaz may be required to be deployed in the number 10 role.
Antonio Rudiger is ruled out on account of a thigh issue, but Nacho Fernandez is in line to return to the XI after overcoming a muscle issue.
Meanwhile, Los Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti will not be able to avail of the services of ACL injury victims Eder Militao, David Alaba and Thibaut Courtois.
Real Madrid possible XI: Lunin; Carvajal, Tchouameni, Nacho, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Camavinga; Brahim; Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo
| Position | Players |

| Goalkeepers: | Kepa, Lunin |
| Defenders: | Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy, Garcia, Carvajal, Vazquez |
