The defending Champions League title holders still aren’t assured of a spot in the next round of the competition.
Real Madrid come into matchday seven sitting 20th in the overall standings, and just two points clear in the playoff spots. Los Blancos have won just two of their last four, and have suffered defeats in three of their last five.
However, this could be a perfect opportunity to get their Champions League campaign back on track. Salzburg sit 32nd in the standings, and have lost five of their six matches in the competition.
