Zidane's Pre-Match Presser:

-"It'll be a tough game against very strong opposition, who play good football.

-We'll be trying to do our best to win. They played very well at the Bernabéu. I watch almost all of the games of the teams that we face and it has been the same for Legia".

-"It'll likely be a bit of a different game, with it being played behind closed doors, but it doesn't alter anything for us."

-"I don't think there'll be any issues with the players' motivation. It doesn't give us any advantage, I prefer to always play in front of a crowd because that's what football is all about".

-"When I played behind closed doors in Rome it was a bit odd, but these things sometimes happen in football.We'll have to go out and be focused right from the off".

"I must improve in all areas and I'm delighted to have reached 100 games as a coach. I hope to continue on in this vein. I enjoy what I'm doing and I hope to remain at this club for many years to come".

Benzema and Morata
"They're two key players, both of them will be be handed playing time. I know that you always ask the same thing and I'll always give you the same answer."

Lack of defensive solidity?
"I'm not concerned about it, it's a fact. In every game we concede, even in the Copa del Rey match and that always bothers you. In football you can't control everything, you face opposition who can pose problems.

-"During the course of a game you're always going to have some problems, it's impossible to perform well for 90 minutes. We can and must improve in all areas of the pitch and that's something we're work on in training".

Security
"Let's hope that there isn't a repeat of the things we saw in the first leg. I can't say any more on it than that. I hope that nothing happens outside the ground and that things run smoothly. I just want the best for the game".

 
Real Madrid have faced Polish clubs on seven occasions in the past, in all competitions. They won all seven of these games.
