Carlo Ancelotti unsure of Karim Benzema start

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti admits that he has not decided whether to start Karim Benzema in Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg against Juventus.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has admitted that he is undecided whether to pick Karim Benzema from the start against Juventus on Wednesday.

The Frenchman has returned to training this week following a month on the sidelines with a knee problem and is available for the Champions League semi-final second leg in Madrid.

"He is recovering but he has had a month without playing. I don't know whether to make use of his quality from the start or in the second half, when the pace is lower. He gives us the possibility of playing a more effective game," Ancelotti told reporters when questioned whether the striker would start.

Real Madrid, who are attempting to become the first team in the modern era to successfully defend the Champions League, were beaten 2-1 in the first leg in Turin last week.
