Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers doesn't see Real Madrid weakened by the absence of Gareth Bale.
Bale is out of tonight's Champions League clash due to injury.
Rodgers said: "Gareth Bale is a world-class player with fantastic speed and fantastic talent, but with the squad Real Madrid have they can bring in players like Isco so I don't think really it's an advantage if he doesn't play.
"It's still going to be a very difficult game for us, they have a squad full of top-class players.
"Of course there is a special talent in Cristiano Ronaldo, arguably the best player in the world at the moment, and his evolution from being a soloist who scores goals to a goalscorer is there to see and his record is incredible.
"But we have to make a plan for our team first to ensure we cause Real Madrid problems and then prepare yourself for the quality players they have, but that will be as a team."
