LaLiga leaders Real Madrid are all set for matchday two in the UEFA Champions League as they host Club Brugge at Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, October 1, 2019. Los Blancos will be looking to get their first win in the Champions League this season as they were thrashed 3-0 by Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in their Group A opener. On the other hand, Club Brugge started their UEFA Champions League campaign with a goalless draw against Galatasaray. It would be a tough task for the Belgian side to get through the group stage as they are placed with PSG and Real Madrid.
UEFA Champions League: Real Madrid, Club Brugge player updates
Real Madrid are still unbeaten in LaLiga this season, recording four wins and three draws. Zinedine Zidane’s side is still struggling with their left-back problems as Ferland Mendy is out of action with a groin problem and Marcelo is probably going to miss the upcoming clash with a neck injury. Although Zidane still has an option with Spanish international Nacho filling in that spot. Also, Marco Asensio is out of action with a long-term knee injury.
Isco likely to return to action
Meanwhile, Isco, who has not played a single game in the last month due to a hamstring injury, was seen training with the team and is likely to be a part of the squad. Ballon d'Or winner Luka Modric was out of action with a thigh problem. He returned to the field as a substitute in Real’s last clash against Atletico. Philippe Clement's Club Brugge will be playing almost with their same team. Only, Eder Balanta will be out of action with a hamstring problem.
