Real Madrid need just a point to secure qualification for the knockout round of the Champions League. Los Blancos are very strong in the tournament, and as a whole in front of own audience have 8 wins from 9 matches. It seems that Real will achieve their goal in this game but the team will be without the goal-machine Cristiano Ronaldo, who is injured.
In the Champions League Ronaldo has eight goals in four games and his absence will definitely be noticed. Besides Ronaldo, with injuries are suffering Khedira, Coentrao, Varan and Luka Modric is suspended. Of course, Ancelotti has enough good players available with which to replace those injured. This situation gives an opportunity for the players of Real Madrid to present their skills without Ronaldo.
Good result at Bernabeu will be of great benefit to Galatasaray in the battle for the second place. In view of the points in group B, however, it seems that the second place will be decided in the last match between Galatasaray and Juventus. The guests also have many injured players, which will further impede the manager Mancini.
