Ancelotti’s charges are heavy favourites to clinch a 15th European Cup/Champions League title after already being confirmed as La Liga champions this month.
The build up around the final has focused on a few remaining selection calls for Ancelotti with his goal keeping pick still up for debate.
Andriy Lunin started both semi final games against Bayern Munich, and played a key role in helping Real Madrid to the final, but he will be on the bench against Dortmund.
Thibaut Courtois’ return to fitness has changed Ancelotti’s mind and the Belgian stopper will take his place between the posts for this crucial game.
“Lunin travels tomorrow (to Wembley) and he will start on the bench. Courtois will play”, Ancelotti stated clearly in his pre match press conference.
The only other starting change from the Bayern second leg is expected in midfield with Eduardo Camavinga replacing the injured Aurelien Tchouameni.
