Pep Guardiola "sure" Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo will play

Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola is "sure" that Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo will both play for Real Madrid in tomorrow's Champions League semi-final second leg.

Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola has admitted that he would be surprised if Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo were not in the Real Madrid XI for tomorrow's Champions League semi-final second leg.

Ronaldo started the first leg last week, which Madrid won 1-0, despite a period on the sidelines through injury, but Bale was only named on the bench due to illness.

Ronaldo also started Madrid's 4-0 win over Osasuna in La Liga at the weekend, but Bale was not involved as the Welshman battles to overcome a flu-like virus.

"In the end it doesn't matter who plays, the individual quality of the Madrid players is amazing," Guardiola told reporters at a press conference.

"They are all direct runners. That said, I'm sure they'll play Bale and Cristiano because they are very important to them."

Bayern are the current holders of the Champions League.
