Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo out of Real Madrid squad

Real Madrid will be without all three members of their famed 'BBC' attack against Leganes as Zinedine Zidane has rested the trio for the Copa del Rey quarter-final first leg.

Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo are all absent from the 19-man squad for Thursday night's clash at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque.

Superstar forward Ronaldo has struggled for form domestically this season, while Bale has only recently returned to fitness and Benzema has not yet featured in 2018 due to injury.
