Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane is potentially short of options at centre-back ahead of the eagerly anticipated Champions League quarter-final with Juventus at the Bernabeu.

The defending champions hold a 3-0 advantage heading into the second leg thanks to goals from Cristiano Ronaldo (2) and Marcelo.

But the La Liga giants will be without talismanic defender Sergio Ramos due to suspension after the captain picked up his second yellow card of the knock-out stages.

Nacho is an injury doubt and may not be fit to play, while Jesus Vallejo is also struggling for fitness.

If neither of these players are able to face Juventus, Theo Hernandez will partner Raphael Varane in central defence.

Meanwhile, the rest of the team is likely to stay the same from the first leg win in Turin.

LIKELY XI: Navas; Carvajal, Theo, Varane, Marcelo; Casemiro, Modric, Kroos; Ronaldo, Benzema, Isco.
