Gareth Bale will have to wait for his full Champions League debut with Real Madrid as he was once again named amongst Carlo Ancelotti\'s substitutes for their home game on Wednesday against Juventus at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Welshman came on for the final 13 minutes of Saturday\'s 2-0 win over Malaga on his return from a thigh strain and won a penalty in stoppage time. However, his lack of match practice and the fine form of Angel di Maria means Bale must wait to make his home European debut. Spanish international Isco is also somewhat surprisingly omitted from the starting line up as Ancelotti makes four changes in all from the side that started against Malaga. In come Iker Casillas, Alvaro Arbeloa, Luka Modric and Karim Benzema with Diego Lopez, Dani Carvajal, Isco and Alvaro Morata dropping out. Fernando Llorente starts for Juventus on his return to Spain to partner Carlos Tevez in attack as the Italian champions go in search of their first win in Group B. Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal is also fit enough to start after starting Sunday\'s 4-2 defeat at Fiorentina on the bench. Source: AFP
