Real Madrid rallied from two goals down to salvage a 2-2 home draw against Club Brugge on Tuesday, avoiding a second consecutive loss in the Champions League.

Young Nigerian forward Emmanuel Bonaventure scored two first-half goals for the Belgian club but Madrid recovered with headers by Sergio Ramos in the 55th and Casemiro in the 85th.

Casemiro's header came from a free kick straight after Brugge went down to 10 men as captain Ruud Vormer was sent off for a second yellow card.

Madrid stayed last in Group A, two points behind leader Paris Saint-Germain, which visits Galatasaray later Tuesday. Brugge, which has never advanced to the knockout round, has two points, one more than Galatasaray.

PSG defeated Real Madrid 3-0 in the first round.

PREVEW

Prediction

Defeat against PSG was a setback for Real Madrid, but they remain strong favourites to progress from this group. And they should have far too much for their visitors on Wednesday evening.

Los Blancos have, according to Opta, won all three of their previous Champions League home games against Belgian opposition by an aggregate score of 14-2.

They will need to be wary of Brugge, though, who are currently unbeaten domestically and top of the Belgian first division.

Zinedine Zidane will hope his side’s improved defence – Real have not conceded in three games since the PSG loss – lays the foundation for an important victory.

Isco and Marcelo return for Real Madrid but are only fit enough to make the bench. There's a first start in two months for Luka Modric, though, back from injury.

Gareth Bale is rested and not involved in the squad.

And here's the Brugge team!

Real Madrid know the importance of a victory tonight. Their 3-0 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the opening game of Group A has left them playing catch up, and they can't afford any more slip ups.

Club Brugge, meanwhile, will hope to frustrate Zinedine Zidane's side. The fans at the Bernabeu are notoriously impatient, and things might get edgy if the game doesn't go as planned for Real Madrid.

Here's Dermot Corrigan's piece on the weekend's Madrid derby, which ended goalless:

Eden Hazard has yet to really get going as a Real Madrid player. He starts again tonight, and has highlighted the importance of making an impact:

"I'm not a Galactico yet. I have to show that I can be one," said Hazard.

"We all know the history of the number seven shirt at this club and I want to show I can be the best in the world. I want to give my all, not just in matches but in training too.

"I can do better, I'm critical of myself as well, but working every day we will change things.

"Not everything is perfect but we're first in La Liga, we lost in Paris, maybe I was set back because of the injury but now I'm at 100% and hope to give my all in the coming games."

Zidane has backed Hazard to find his feet at the Bernabeu, too.

"I know he will triumph here but the important thing is to be calm and back him," said the Frenchman. 

"I know how it works, I was worse when I arrived in Italy. There, I took three months [to hit form], at Madrid a bit less."
