AS Roma host Real Madrid in their penultimate UEFA Champions League Group G outing on Tuesday, when each team will hope to bounce back from domestic defeats in their return to club football over the weekend.

Santiago Solari's honeymoon as Real boss is over following his first defeat in the position, with an almost full-strength side simply outclassed by their opponents in Basque country.
