3. The Ronaldo Factor
Say what you will about the Cristiano Ronaldo but this man has been lights out in the Champions League. He may not be as clinical in La Liga but Ronaldo certainly makes up for it on the big stage. Ronaldo is the leading scorer in this years competition, what better than a player who can back up his play with those stats. Ronaldo is also the first person to ever score at least one goal in every match of the group stage.
Will Cristiano Ronaldo add to his 4 #UCL titles? 🏆🏆🏆🏆

Last season alone speaks volumes about the forward, even when he was criticised for being to slow and losing his edge. Ronaldo put five goals past Bayern Munich in the quarter-final, bagged a hattrick against Atletico Madrid in the Semi-finals and scored two goals against an unstoppable Buffon in the Final against Juventus.
One man can’t do it all himself but Ronaldo sure is one man that can turn a game in his favour. Cristiano is stepping onto the biggest stage this season and will make sure that the cameras are ready to witness brilliance.

Conclusion
This could be considered an optimistic view or a personal bias but it is undisputedly factual. Madrid has it down on paper that they can beat this team, from a coaching standpoint, experience in the competition and the sharpest ace this is Madrid’s match to lose.
