Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba will be fit for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League clash against Manchester City next week.

Both defenders missed the first leg at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday due to injury, as well as Madrid’s recent 1-1 draw with Atletico in LaLiga.

Speaking after Madrid’s 3-2 win over City, Ancelotti expressed confidence that the duo would return for the crucial match at the Santiago Bernabeu.

“We need Rudiger and Alaba for the return leg, and I think they will be available,” he said. He also admitted that he was surprised by how much his team was willing to sacrifice to secure the win.
