Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane starts for the German giants at Real Madrid in their Champions League quarter-final first leg clash on Tuesday.
The England captain missed Bayern's game at Freiburg on the weekend with an ankle issue but returns to the line-up at the Santiago Bernabeu.
His England team-mate Jude Bellingham is on the bench for Real Madrid, having not started a match since January because of a hamstring injury and is still finding his way back to full fitness.
Madrid coach Alvaro Arbeloa lines up with French striker Kylian Mbappe and Brazilian winger Vinicius Junior in attack, while 18-year-old midfielder Thiago Pitarch plays in midfield after impressing against Manchester City in the previous round.
