Real Madrid will face Galatasaray on Wednesday evening, and they will want to put together a more convincing display than their narrow win a couple of weeks ago.
It looks like Real Madrid are well on their way to bouncing back in the Champions League, as they picked up their first win of the campaign a couple of weeks ago in Istanbul, defeating Galatasaray 1-0. They are now in second place in the group with four points after picking up this vital victory, which followed a disappointing 2-2 draw with Club Brugge at the start of October.
While Real still have their eyes on the end of November revenge game against PSG, they’ll need to be focused at the Santiago Bernabeu when they take on Galatasaray for the second time in this year’s Champions League campaign.
Galatasaray have question marks of their own to answer and won’t have veteran striker Radamel Falcao, who is certainly familiar with Real Madrid after once being a superstar player for Atletico Madrid, but they are a formidable opponent for Real.
Furthermore, Los Blancos are coming off another disappointing outing in La Liga, drawing 0-0 with Real Betis after missing glorious chances. They picked up three points at Galatasaray after bouncing back from a rough weekend result last time, and here are five key players who can help Real pick up all three points again this week.
