Real Madrid completely killed the intrigue in this quarterfinal clash, winning 3-0 in the previous game against Galatasaray. However, Mourinho said that in football miracles happen, but his team will be as focused and motivated to hopefully prevent such a "miracle" of occuring. With the likes of Drogba and Sneijder and their home advantage, Galatasaray has the strength to reach the victory over Real Madrid, but such with 3 or more goals difference is highly unlikely.
A goal for Real Madrid will completely guarantee the semi-finals for the guests and this team rarely fails to score at least one goal in their matches. Ronaldo will pursue his tenth goal of the tournament, to confirm his first position in the ranking of a top scorer of the Champions League. Mourinho's team is aspiring to the title of the Champions League, and had not made a loss in either of their last 6 games in the tournament. For Real 2 key players will be absent Alonso and Ramos, who are suspended, but the coach of the "White Ballet" has exceptional players who can replace them qiute well.
For the hosts, the main scorer in the Champions League this season Burak Yilmaz is also suspended for this game. The faithful supporters of Galatasaray will have their impact on the game as usual. Galatasaray already managed to win against one of the European giants this season - Manchester United, but the forces of the team probably will not be enough for a 'miracle' against Real Madrid.
