Real Madrid v APOEL (Champions League)
League rankings: Real Madrid 7th (La Liga) APOEL 5th (Cypriot First Division)
Useful facts: APOEAL won't have good memories of their last encounter with Los Blancos back in 2012, where they lost 8-2 on aggregate. However, the Cypriots are undefeated in three games and meet Zinedine Zidane's men after a drop in form that has seen them fail to win their last two games, largely due to a misfiring attack. However, Real will welcome the return of Cristiano Ronaldo, who's missed the last four competitive games due to suspension.

Cape Town City v Kaizer Chiefs (Absa Premiership)
League rankings: Cape Town City 2nd Chiefs 14th
Useful facts: Benni McCarthy's men are flying through a purple patch that has seen them win all of their five games this season, having already made the MTN8 final and sitting pretty on top of the log – separated from Maritzburg United by goal difference. Chiefs, on the other hand, are still yet to win this season, losing two of their three games. Furthermore, Chiefs haven't beaten City since their rebranding, with their last win coming against the club formerly known as Mpumalanga Black Aces in October 2015.
Bruce Ramokadi: Cape Town City, they're doing well and playing at home.
