Real Madrid face a disciplinary dilemma before their first‑leg Champions League clash with Benfica. Midfielder Aurélien Tchouameni, defender Dean Huijsen and defender Álvaro Carreras each have two yellow cards in the competition and are one caution away from suspension.
The trio are expected to start at Estadio da Luz, but a booking would sideline them for the return leg at the Santiago Bernabéu, potentially jeopardising Madrid’s chances of advancing to the round of 16.
