Five Real Madrid players are just one yellow card away from missing the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Atlético Madrid.
A Madrid derby is on the cards for the Champions League round of 16. Real Madrid eliminated Manchester City 6–3 on aggregate in the knockout phase playoffs and now must face their La Liga rivals in the next round of the competition.
Like so many times this season, Carlo Ancelotti will not have his full squad available for the upcoming clash. The biggest name missing the first leg of the tie is Jude Bellingham, who is suspended due to yellow card accumulation in the Champions League. The midfielder will return in the second leg, but there could be five other players forced to sit out of the deciding match if they receive a yellow card on Tuesday night.
