    And two changes for Ateltico Madrid too. War horse Diego Godin is back in defence while Yannick Carrasco comes in in attack.

    There's no Fernando Torres still. 

  3. One Arbeloa!

    We had lunch in a restaurant across the road from the Bernabeu, and the table next to us had 11 Real fans all wearing their white Los Merengues shirts. 

    Nine of them had RONALDO No.7 on the back. One was blank. And one had ARBELOA!

    They told me that there are big plans for the pre-match "mosaic" that the fans will unfurl as the teams come out. Apparently it's the biggest and most expensive one they've ever done. 

  4. Real on track for the title

    Real Madrid scored a late winner to beat Valencia at the weekend and take another step towards the La Liga title.

    Cristiano Ronaldo struck early for Real - making him the all-time leading scorer in Europe's top five leagues - but missed a second-half penalty.

    Dani Parejo equalised on 82 minutes but Marcelo's late curling effort secured the win.

    Real stay second in the table behind Barcelona, who beat Espanyol 3-0 later on Saturday.

    However, Real will claim the title if they win each of their remaining four league matches as they have a game in hand on Barca.

    Zinedine Zidane's side are looking for a third Champions League crown in four years. Their last two wins came at the expense of Atleti.

    Will it be the same again in this semi-final?
