Everything is at stake for Real Madrid this Wednesday night at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium against Borussia Monchengladbach.

Real Madrid could be in the Europa League with a new manager if they don’t beat Borussia Monchengladbach. That is what is at stake for Los Blancos. If they win this match, they will advance to the knockout stages of the Champions League. If they tie, fate is not in their hands. And if they lose, surely everything will be over for Zinedine Zidane, and maybe Sergio Ramos and Luka Modric will follow.

There are so many topics in this Real Madrid squad that detailing them deserves not only a post, but a series of articles. However, if they can beat Gladbach, even if the result is as ugly as their weekend win over Sevilla, all will be quiet until the next catastrophe.

Here are five Los Merengues players who must shine on Wednesday night if the club wants to avoid a nightmare scenario and a trip to the Europa League.

CB Sergio Ramos

We start with the captain, Sergio Ramos, whose own future is uncertain amid the turmoil of the team. While there is no question of Ramos’ commitment and importance to Real, he may choose to leave a dysfunctional organization if the club hits rock bottom. We have to wait and see, but there is a lot at stake in this game for Ramos.

He can make a difference on Wednesday night, either on defense or as a goal threat. Ramos scored his 100th goal for Real Madrid in a 3-2 home win over Inter Milan, but the team could not win against Shakhtar Donetsk without him, twice.

Can No. 4 score another fairytale goal for Real Madrid in the Champions League? Whites can count on that.
