Good evening everybody and welcome along to this MARCA in English live blog, taking you through Real Madrid's opening Champions League match of the season, against Marseille, at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid.

Xabi Alonso is off to the perfect start to life as Real Madrid coach in LaLiga, with four wins from as many games. Yet Tuesday will see his Champions League bow in the dugout for Los Blancos, the club with whom he won the tournament as a player less than a decade ago.

They enter the game on the back of a hard fought 2-1 away win at Real Sociedad, where they played most of the match with ten men following Dean Huijsen's first-half red card.

Kylian Mbappe is on red-hot form, with four goals from his opening four matches and, tonight, he takes on a well-known foe in Marseille, the big rivals of his former club Paris Saint-Germain.

The Frenchman has scored ten goals and made three assists against Marseille across his 15 appearances against them for Monaco and PSG.

Marseille have had a mixed start to the campaign so far: two home wins, and two home defeats from their opening four in Ligue 1.
