Real Madrid - Bayern Munich squad list









VS





Sergio Ramos and Diarra will not play against Bayern Munich on Tuesday. The Mali native's absence was expected as he hasn't trained all week, and Sergio Ramos was unable to recover from a knock he received to his foot on Saturday against Betis. With the exception of Raúl Bravo taking Ramos' place, it's the same list of 20 players who were called up for last Saturday's match.

Sergio Ramos (bruised foot) and Cannavaro (back) were doubtful for tomorrow's Champions League match against Bayern, but the Italian defender trained today and has found his way onto the squad list. Meanwhile, the Sevillian native did not recover on time and will have to wait for the return leg to take on the German team.

Coach Fabio Capello has called up a total of 20 players; the same as those who he named for the Betis match with the exception of Raúl Bravo for Ramos. Diarra is still recovering from a hard tackle by Skoubo during the match against Real Sociedad, while Cassano and Miñambres were left off the list due to a technical decision. Castilla's Torres has been included once again.

Roberto Carlos and Marcelo are also available to play for Capello (Roberto Carlos did not play against Betis as a precautionary measure before tomorrow) and we will find out whether either of them are in the starting eleven moments before kickoff. With Ramos out, Torres will most likely fill in at right back, while one of the two Brazilians will take over on the left side of the back line.

The rest of the team is in good physical form and will meet tonight at 8:30 pm CET for pre-match preparations at the Mirasierra Suites Hotel.
