Real Madrid vs. Cornella: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and Preview

Real Madrid will defend a comfortable 4-1 win from the first leg in Tuesday's return leg of the Copa del Rey Round of 32 against Segunda B side UD Cornella, in what could arguably be the most lopsided match Les Blancos have to play all season.

The hosts won't just defend a lead of four away goals—Cornella haven't won a single match in the Segunda B since their first encounter, losing 6-2 to Atletico Baleares during the weekend.

Barring the biggest upset Spanish sports has seen in the past decade, the Champions League holders will advance. Cornella fielded a dentist and a school teacher in the first leg, via BBC Sport, to give you some idea of Tuesday's opposition.

Date: Tuesday, December 2

Time: 7 p.m. GMT/2 p.m. ET

Venue: Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid

TV info and live stream: The match will be broadcast on Sky Sports 5 (for UK viewers) and BeIN Sports USA (for U.S. viewers), with mobile coverage available via the Sky Go app and BeIN Sports Connect.

As one might expect, manager Carlo Ancelotti has decided to rest a number of starters for this not-so-pivotal clash, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Toni Kroos taking the headlines. As shared by the club's official Twitter feed, Sami Khedira will make his return to the squad:

AS adds Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos and Gareth Bale to that list, to the surprise of Bleacher Report's Samuel Marsden, who was hoping the Welshman would be given the opportunity to show his efficiency playing in an attacking system that didn't feature Ronaldo:

"

It could hand Gareth Bale the chance to step forward and be the main man. He scored a hat-trick last season against Real Valladolid when Ronaldo was absent, and he'll be keen to have a similar impact here.

The Welshman missed a string of games in the middle of Madrid's 16-match winning run, but he has returned to reclaim his place in the side.

"

While no team ever deserves to be underrated, Cornella hardly present a challenge for Los Blancos. The Catalans play in a stadium that seats 1.500—the Bernabeu can pack over 80.000. The assembled starting XI of the squad probably earns less per year than Ronaldo does in a month.

As such, Ancelotti is taking this opportunity to introduce some younger players, with Alvaro Medran set to start for Los Blancos. The Italian manager spoke highly of the youngster, via the club's official website:

"

He is a complete midfielder, who can play in every position. He is a quality player with a lot of stamina... he's a player who likes to play box to box. He is more similar to Modric than to Kroos.

"

ESPN FC's Nicholas Rigg thinks it's a tremendous opportunity for the midfielder:

Finally, Jese Rodriguez will make his return to the squad following a lengthy absence due to injury. The Spanish forward will start on the bench, but Ancelotti expects to introduce him for the second half:

"

Jese will not be in the starting XI, but he is part of the squad and will play the second half or at least a good part of it. It is great for us and is a welcome bit of news. He is a quality player and we are delighted that he can play.

"

Cornella's main objective on Tuesday will be to enjoy playing at the Bernabeu, in front of thousands and against a team of stars. Winning would be fantastic, but the Catalans would have to score four and not concede to advance to the Round of 16.

That's simply never going to happen. Not against this Real Madrid squad, that has won 16 straight and is romping through every competition it plays in. Even with a host of backups on the pitch, expect a convincing win for the hosts.

Final prediction: Real Madrid 6-0 Cornella
