Both Ronaldo and Benzema are recovering from injury problems, with their availability to coach Zinedine Zidane likely to remain in doubt until close to kick-off.
Portugal captain Ronaldo missed Saturday's La Liga game at Rayo Vallecano with a muscle problem and his fitness remains in question for the City clash.
Speaking on Friday, Zidane said: "We did the scans and he has nothing serious, but he cannot play tomorrow. Then we will see about Tuesday."
Benzema limped off before half-time against Rayo with an apparent hamstring problem, but Zidane said: "I hope it's nothing and he can play on Tuesday -- but right now I can't tell you."
Real defender Dani Carvajal returns to the squad after being rested against Rayo.
