#3 Over-reliance on Cristiano Ronaldo
The great man is in the form of his life! Scoring in 12 consecutive matches and in 11 consecutive Champions League games, Ronaldo has single-handedly been carrying Real Madrid since the turn of the year.
To put things into perspective, Ronaldo has scored 15 goals in Europe this season. The next best for the club? Karim Benzema and Marcelo, with just 2 goals. In all competitions, Ronaldo has 42 goals to his name. Gareth Bale comes second with just 14 goals.
Bayern Munich do have a task on their hands to stop the Portuguese hitman who has literally been scoring for fun in Europe. But stopping him will be more than half the battle won for the Bavarians.
Real Madrid struggle for inspiration on the field from anyone other Cristiano Ronaldo and if Bayern Munich can stifle Madrid's talisman, the visitors may be in for a long night at the Allianz Arena.
