Real Madrid host Red Bull Leipzig in the return leg of the Champions League’s Round of 16. Coach Carlo Ancelotti has a decision to make about Aurelien Tchouameni’s position. Should he start ahead of Nacho as a center-back or should he play as the defensive midfielder?

Real Madrid predicted XI: Lunin, Carvajal, Rudiger, Tchouameni, Mendy, Camavinga, Kroos, Valverde, Bellingham, Vinicius, Rodrygo.

Red Bull Leipzig predicted XI: Gulacsi, Henrichs, Lukeba, Orban, Raum, Haidara, Schlager, Olmo, Simons, Openda, Sesko.

Sesko proved to be a difficult player for Nacho to deal with during the first leg, so Tchouameni might end up playing alongside Rudiger tonight.
