Real Madrid are set to face Benfica in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League tie, and the Portuguese side will indeed be without one of their players.
Details: It has been officially confirmed that Benfica have lost their appeal against Prestianni’s suspension. He will definitively miss the showdown with Real Madrid.
By the way, no one within Real Madrid can currently specify a timeframe for Jude Bellingham’s comeback. A definitive return date has yet to be set.
Recall: Real Madrid have also published their full squad list for the match against Benfica. To the great disappointment of the Galacticos faithful, the bad news has been confirmed: 27-year-old forward Kylian Mbappe will not feature in tonight’s game.
