Against elche

UEFA Champions League: Real and Atletico Madrid are both in UEFA Champions League action on Wednesday, with Real Madrid travelling to Greece in the face of doubts about coach Xabi Alonso, while Atletico face a vital match at home for their European future.

Real Madrid's 2-2 draw away to Elche again raised questions over their standard of play under Alonso, following the team's another disjointed display.

The Spanish press has talked about poor relations with some Real Madrid players and the coach, who is also not helped by injuries to defenders such as Antonio Rudiger, Dani Carvajal, and Eder Militao, reports Xinhua.
