Real Madrid early team news: Vinicius could return

Vinicius Junior should be fit to return to the Real Madrid line-up after missing the weekend win at Cadiz with injury, while Toni Kroos may also recover in time to travel to London.

Ferland Mendy is a likely absentee for the Champions League holders, however, with his calf injury set to keep him out and potentially give Eduardo Camavinga another opportunity to fill in at left-back.

 

Chelsea early team news: Chilwell, Koulibaly both missing

Chelsea will be without the suspended Ben Chilwell after his red card in Madrid last time out, while Kalidou Kouliably, forced off with injury at the Bernabeu, is also absent.

Kai HavertzRuben Loftus-Cheek and Carney Chukwuemeka could all return after nursing knocks, but Armando Broja’s long-term knee injury continues to keep him on the sidelines.

N’Golo Kante and Thiago Silva missed Saturday’s defeat by Brighton but were only rested ahead of Tuesday’s second leg.
