After a humiliating 4-0 defeat to Alcorcon in the first leg, Real Madrid have it all to do to turn the tie around at the Santiago Bernabeu.

While Manuel Pellegrini has chosen to rest some of his key players, the Chilean coach has still named a strong squad to face the Segunda B side.

Having sat out the derby with Atletico Madrid, Raul Albiol returns from suspension and could line up in the heart of defence. However, Sergio Ramos must serve a ban after being sent off against los Colchoneros.

Cristiano Ronaldo remains on the sidelines as he recovers from an ankle injury, while Pellegrini has chosen to rest Iker Casillas, Karim Benzema, Royston Drenthe, Xabi Alonso and Christoph Metzelder.

Veteran midfielder Guti has also been omitted once again. He has not featured since his bust-up with Pellegrini at half-time during the first leg of los Blancos' Copa del Rey tie, and the coach is still not convinced over Guti's attitude.

Pellegrini has chosen the following 16-man squad to face Alcorcon:

Goalkeepers: Dudek, Adan.

Defenders: Arbeloa, Pepe, Marcelo, Albiol, Garay.

Midfielders: Gago, Diarra, Kaka, Lass, Van der Vaart, Granero.

Forwards:
Raul, Van Nistelrooy, Higuain.

We ask you to leave your choices in the comments feature below using hyphens to separate positions, working from right to left. For example, here is the side that could line up in a 4-4-2 formation:

Dudek - Arbeloa, Pepe, Albiol, Marcelo - Kaka, Lass, Gago, Granero - Raul, Higuain

Hala Madrid!
