Gameday in Madrid for the second round of the group D between Real Madrid & Sheriff.

Real Madrid will be without Carvajal, Bale, Marcelo, Ceballos & Mendy.

Sheriff will be without Belousov injured & Plesco suspended. Yansane one of their best player is doubtful.

Well there is not too much things to say about this game because the quality difference between both teams is known.

Real Madrid is just doing a great early of season, they made already few strong wins this season, against Celta 5-2, against Mallorca 6-1. On their last game they made a draw against Villareal, tactically Emery made a great job to counter Real Madrid.

All Real Madrid players are in a great shape, Vinicius who is doing his best season with Real Madrid. Benzema who is doing a strong early of season even if on the last game he didn't play that good but it happens. Hazard looks well back from injury but he still need time. According to medias he might be starter for this game and it would be the best moment for him. Camavinga still young but he made strong appearance for RM.

About Sheriff they made the history to qualify for the group stage of the Champions League and on the first round they made a new history with 3 points earned thanks to their win against Shakhtar.

This game is just doing insane things on european competition since the early of the season but it can't continue, even their previous performances aren't logical. 

I follow moldavian league so I really know this team and know that they don't have that much potential.

Maybe they won against Shakhtar at home but on the road they will be in big trouble against Real Madrid without any doubt.

As I said Yansane their top striker is doubtful. They lost Luvannor few weeks ago who still be a bad thing for them.

Against Shakhtar they didn't play their offensive game and they played much more defensively, they could score in counter.

Against Real Madrid if they use this tactic again they won't survive and if they use their offensive style with their 4-3-3 it won't work.

Total market value of Real Madrid is 793M€

Total market value of Sheriff is 12M€

I expect a big win by Real Madrid, something as 4-0. If they don't win this game easily it would be a shame especially as they don't have the easier group with Inter & Shakhtar where they already got problems last year.
