Iker Casillas to start against Galatasaray

Carlo Ancelotti confirms that Iker Casillas will start tomorrow's Champions League clash with Galatasaray, but says that Diego Lopez will be continue to be Real Madrid's first-choice goalkeeper in La Liga competition.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Iker Casillas will start tomorrow's Champions League encounter against Galatasaray.

The Spanish goalkeeper has been second choice to Diego Lopez in La Liga so far this season, but his experience in Europe will see him get the nod ahead of his 31-year-old counterpart.

"Casillas and Diego are both very good goalkeepers and the competition between the two makes both of them better," Ancelotti told reporters. "Casillas's huge experience in the Champions League makes him my first choice.

"He has everything he needs to put up with the pressure, he has no problem.

"For now, Diego will keep playing in the league and Casillas will continue to be our Champions League keeper."

Casillas was dropped from the side by Jose Mourinho last season.
