Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has declared that Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo are fit to face Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

The attacking duo were injury doubts for the trip to England, but the French coach insists that they have "recovered really well" and are due to start at the Etihad Stadium.

"They are absolutely fine at the moment, they have recovered really well," Zidane told reporters. "I think they will be fine, 100%. But we will test them. The idea is they'll play."

Meanwhile, Zidane's opposite number Manuel Pellegrini has admitted that midfielder Yaya Toure is likely to miss the game through injury, while City captain Vincent Kompany is in line to return from a calf problem.
