Real Madrid – CSKA Moscow

Real Madrid will face with cold and with an opponent that has not changed much in recent years in Moscow on artificial land. CSKA, vice Spain opponent in Champions League lost two essential players from previous editions but put "hand" on two pearls: Doumbia and Musa. With a strong defense and a worker middle doubled by imagination of Dzagoev or Tosic, Russians do not seem at all an easy opponent. If we add strength and instinct of marker of the the Ivorian Doumbia, Muscovites easily justify their qualification at this stage of the competition.
Mourinho refused to give details at a press conference last night, but drew attention to the opponent: "We can not afford to joke, here is the Champions League. Treat the game with maximum seriousness and will come with all our best. I can not tell one eleven because I do not know yet who will play. But we have a choice and that matters most " the Portuguese told. It most certainly will rely on force to the detriment tehnicitatii for tonight's game, especially in the median. Lass Diarra will be absent so next to Xabi Alonso will play Sami Khedira. Coentrao could be surprise on third line defense, but are more likely Portuguese defender still in the band left to play. If Fabio will not be used in middle there could play Granero, in which Kaka, a creative midfielder, will jump from the scheme. Defense seems sure: right Arbeloa, Pepe and Ramos in the center, Marcelo Coentrao or left. Ronaldo and Ozil are sure of their tenure as and Benzema, who will play top presses.
From the other side, the hosts have leaders in defense Berezutsky brothers. They will play tomorrow with massive Scechennikov Ignasevich while median line will consist of Wernbloom and Aldonin the defensive phase, Tosic and Dzagoev offensive version. Musa and Doumbia is the main danger to the gate of Casillas. The game takes on an even greater degree of difficulty as the official training at madrilenii were greeted by -10 degrees Celsius during the game tomorrow to expect even -12 or -13 degrees Celsius. No artificial land on Luzhniki not a supporter of Madrid.
