Real Madrid are taking no chances for their Copa del Rey clash at Unionistas de Salamanca, with Zinedine Zidane opting for a line-up with several big hitters.

James Rodríguez overcomes his recent injury issues to start for Los Blancos, as does Gareth Bale, with Karim Benzema leading the line.

The Copa del Rey is the only major club honour Zidane has yet to life as Real boss.
