It comes as no surprise, but most of the team asked for either Modric's or Benzema’s jerseys.

Sadly for the lower-league side, they won’t get to play against either player. As reported by AS, Carlo Ancelotti plans to rotate his squad for the fixture.

Benzema, Modric, Vinícius Júnior, Toni Kroos, David Alaba and Ferland Mendy will all be excluded from the matchday squad. Mariano Diaz, Thibaut Courtois and Dani Carvajal will also miss out through injury.

Ancelotti also plans to call up players from Madrid’s reserve team for the game. Sergio Arribas, Nico Paz, Marvel and Álvaro Rodríguez have been called up to the first team and will be joined by Luis López and Lucas Cañizares, who have both been part of the first team during the season.
