Xabi Alonso's reign as Real Madrid coach begins with their Club World Cup opener against Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal on Wednesday evening.

Having been named as Carlo Ancelotti's replacement last month, the Spaniard's first task will be guiding Los Blancos into the knockout stages of the tournament, which has been expanded to 32 teams and revamped into a month-long summer competition.

That should be no issue for Real Madrid, who have been drawn alongside FC Salzburg, CF Pachuca and Al Hilal – with the top two teams from each group qualifying for the last 16.

Alonso's side may be one of the favourites to win the Club World Cup but they cannot afford to underestimate Wednesday's opponents, who are not short of star power of their own.

Among the familiar faces in Simone Inzaghi's ranks that could cause the Spanish giants issues are Aleksandar Mitrović, João Cancelo, Kalidou Koulibaly, Rúben Neves and Sergej Milinković-Savić.
