All teams can be terrifying and we cannot predict 100% correct for a match result. But if you look at the quality of Real Madrid players, I think Real Madrid should have a bigger chance to win, even without Ramos and Benzema in the match. You don't underestimate other players on the Real squad, they all have quality and motivation to contribute a good thing at any match. Real Madrid never bought bad players even they are for substitution players on the bench.
If you have watched Real Madrid's matches this season, you will see that the match in which Benzema played well was the one Real Madrid must have won. Did you watch yesterday's match? Benzema scored. Real Madrid has an easy win against Athletic Bilbao. I also admit that Real Madrid has a lot of talented players. But the team is relying a lot on Benzema. At least that's what I thought when I saw their style of play.
@Xavofat you’re absolutely correct because Benzema has single handedly been winning games for Real Madrid, but even with him in the team I don’t expect Real Madrid to win it. Furthermore I believe that I have said it here earlier in this season, and I’ll repeat it again that I expect only Bayern Munich to win the champions league this season.

Unfortunately, Madrid has no replacement for these players. The absence of one of these players disrupts the team's play. Even Hazard does not have such an impact on Real Madrid's play.
You are right. These 5is the main player of Real Madrid. If one of them is not in the squad, it has an adverse effect on the team. As Benzema is a striker, the team has to rely more on him to score. Real Madrid need another skilled striker.
