Almost 50,000 MARCA readers have had their say on who should be starting for Real Madrid against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night, with the most popular XI being one in which Karim Benzema is benched.

Around a third of voters – 36.04 percent – agreed with the lineup suggested by Carlos Gonzalez, which was as follows: Keylor Navas; Nacho, Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane, Marcelo; Luka Modric, Casemiro, Toni Kroos, Isco: Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale.

The second most popular option was a 4-3-3 with Marco Asensio and Isco alongside Ronaldo in attack, with Bale and Benzema both left out.

The likelihood, though, is that Zidane will play a 4-3-3 with his BBC front three all starting.
