Fringe players such as Luka Jovic, Brahim Diaz and Eder Militao are likely to feature in Belgium and will be aiming to stake a claim for more game time at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Vinicius Junior could also continue after returning to the starting XI against Espanyol on Saturday and impressing in the 2-0 win:

Brugge faced an uphill task qualifying from a group containing Real Madrid and PSG but have proved to be no pushovers.

They drew 2-2 at the Bernabeu and will have been disappointed to have left with only a point after being 2-0 up at half-time (UK video only):

Philippe Clement's side are also in strong form domestically. They are seven points clear at the top of the Belgian First Division A and are unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions.

Hans Vanaken and David Okereke are the team's top scorers in 2019-20, while Emmanuel Bonaventure scored twice in the draw at the Bernabeu and celebrated in style:

Real Madrid head into the game on a nine-game unbeaten run and are favourites for victory, but Brugge will be optimistic they can get a result if Zidane makes wholesale changes to his starting XI.
