Mourinho will make changes against Athletic Bilbao

On Tuesday, the Madrid left virtually assured the passage to the semifinals of the Champions League thanks to the 4-0 against Tottenham achieved at the Bernabeu Stadium. However, Mourinho will face the second leg of the tie, in order to achieve another good result. Thus in San Mames he is going to make some changes. Those most likely to rest are Cristiano and Marcelo. Both forced for play against Tottenham and could travel to Bilbao, but would start the game on the bench. Arbeloa and Granero would be taken up their positions. Another who also has many possibilities for get out of starting line is Carvalho. Instead would play Albiol. Pepe will play because he will be sidelined in London due to suspension.

On the other hand, Mourinho will receive good news today, the return of Benzema. The French striker was injured on March 29, with France in a game against Croatia and therefore missed the last two games of Real Madrid (Sporting Gijón and Tottenham). Karim suffered a puncture in the thigh of the left leg and had to be replaced. However, already has overcome these physical problems and now back to work with the group.

With the recovery of Benzema, Mourinho will have three forwards at his disposal: Higuain, Benzema and Adebayor. However, everything indicates that the Frenchman will start on the bench at San Mames (Bilbao). The great match played by Adebayor against Tottenham, with a double included, seems to serve him to stay in the starting lineup. However, Mourinho will not reveal the mystery until Saturday.
