Real Madrid vs Chelsea lineups, team news
Karim Benzema looked in the mood to repeat last season's Champions League heroics with back-to-back hat-tricks against Valladolid and Barcelona, although he was withdrawn with an hour played in the 3-2 weekend defeat at home to Villarreal.
Ferland Mendy is still sidelined for Ancelotti's side with a calf problem, meaning a start for Eduardo Camavinga at left-back David Alaba played the first half against Villarreal and starts again as he seeks to manage a muscular problem.
Real Madrid predicted lineup (4-3-3): Courtois (GK) — Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Camavinga — Valverde, Kroos, Modric — Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinicius Jr
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Benoit Badiashile and Noni Madueke are all not included in Chelsea's Champions League squad, while Armando Broja is out for the remainder of the season.
That shortfall in attack is part of the reason for Raheem Sterling partnering Joao Felix up front, while Lampard has opted for the added security of a five-man defence, with Thiago Silva fit to start.
Chelsea lineup (5-3-2): Kepa (GK) — James, Fofana,Silva Koulibaly, Chilwell — Kante, Fernandez, Kovacic — Sterling, Felix
