From the source

Real Madrid visit Athens having taken care of business in the Champions League so far this season. Another win would mean that Los Blancos have all but secured their presence in the Top 8 of the European competition, so while Mourinho will make some rotations here, Real Madrid should take this game seriously in order to get the three points.

AEK Athens predicted XI: Brignoli; Rota, Moukoudi, Relvas, Pilios; Vitales, Marin, Majer, Koita; Jovic y Varga. Real Madrid predicted XI: Courtois; Dumfries, Huijsen, Rüdiger, Carreras; Valverde, Camavinga; Brahim, Bellingham, Vinicius; Mbappé.

Time: 18:45 CET, 12:45pm EST. Venue: ALLWYN Arena, Athens, Greece.
