Real Madrid's run of big games continues on Wednesday night when the face Sheriff Tiraspol in the Champions League on a night which could have a huge impact on the outcome of the group. A win for Los Blancos would keep them top, no matter what happens, and put them in an excellent position to qualify as the group winners. A draw, meanwhile, could leave them needing a result on the final day against Inter to avoid second place and the tougher last 16 draw that would bring.
Should Real Madrid lose, however, and Inter win against Shakhtar on the same night, the group would be tantalisingly poised going into the last matchday and, crucially, Los Blancos would start in third place.
That's what's riding on this Wednesday night game, as well as the chance for revenge against the side who beat them at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in September. It should be a fascinating one and we have all the pre-match information you need below.
