Real Madrid confirmed lineup and team news for UEFA Champions League clash against AEK Athens

Real Madrid will be aiming to maintain their perfect start to the league phase when they travel to Greece to face AEK Athens this evening.

The 15-time winners have started their UEFA Champions League campaign with victories over Inter Milan, AS Roma and RB Leipzig, so will be looking to take another step towards reaching the knockout stages by claiming maximum points.

As well as European success, Real Madrid have also enjoyed some superb performances domestically and have won their last six games in all competitions and nine of their last 10.

The hosts won their European opener against Lask, but have since suffered back-to-back defeats against Shakhtar Donetsk and Manchester City.
