Real Madrid had a wonderful start to their Champions League title defence, defeating Roma 3-0. They have now got Russian opponents CSKA Moscow and another good chance to earn three more points.

Real Madrid though will need to avoid complacency and play their best football to get the desired result. Los Blancos are currently top of their group with three point after 1 game.

On the other hand, CSKA Moscow have had an OK start to their 2018/19 UEFA Champions League, drawing 2-2 with Plzen in their first game.

The task will get harder for them ahead as they now play Real Madrid. But they will need to give their all and hope for the best.

Real Madrid have a good record against CSKA Moscow and will look to continue the good work.
