Los Blancos get to this game with a one-goal lead over the Dutch side, but they will have to fight for their spot in the next round without key players.

What is Real Madrid and Ajax's form ahead of this game?

Real Madrid will enter this match living one of their worst streaks of the season, as they have lost three out of their last four in all competitions, all of them at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. The Spanish giants have lost seven games at home this season, which is a mammoth number compared to the team's six losses at home throughout the entire 2017-18 campaign.

Ajax enters this game in better form than the one they showed before the first leg, as they have won their three most recent matches. Their latest clash will surely provide the team a boost in confidence after beating Feyenoord with a 3-0 score. Two of Ajax's most recent wins have come when playing away from home, which is a good omen for them after Real Madrid's recent woes at the Bernabeu.

What do Real Madrid and Ajax need to make it to the next stage of the UEFA Champions League?

Any win will give Real Madrid a spot in the tournament's quarter final, given their 2-1 win from the first leg. Los Blancos would also go through if the game ends in a draw. Real Madrid may also get to the next round if Ajax can only beat them 1-0 at the Bernabeu.

The Dutch side will have a tough nut to crack if they want to make it to the next round. Erik Ten Hag's men need to win by a two-goal margin if they want to make it to the next round. If they win by a one-goal difference, the Dutch side will need to score over three goals to see that lead get them to the next round.

The game will go to extra time if there is a 2-1 score in Ajax's favor after 90 minutes.
