Dean Huijsen, Alvaro Carreras, and Aurelien Tchouameni are all one yellow card away from suspension for the second leg against Benfica. Huijsen and Tchouameni currently have two yellow cards in the Champions League, while Carreras has four.
Any caution in tonight's match would mean they miss the decisive return leg at Santiago Bernabeu next week. All three players are expected to start and must maintain discipline to avoid jeopardizing Real Madrid's chances of advancing to the Round of 16.
