The defending champs League victors and Los Blancos will really do fight in the quarter-finals, beginning in under about fourteen days.
It will be an astonishing rehash of last season's semi-finals, with Real Madrid fundamentally improving since, at present sitting top of the La Liga table with a nine-point hole.
By all accounts, it's a troublesome game to call, particularly given the off-the-pitch issues presently confronting Chelsea.
Also, that is the means by which Alonso sees it, with the Spain global declining to name any group as top picks to win this season's opposition.
"I don't there are any top choices," he told Diario AS. "At this phase of the opposition, each group you meet will be troublesome - it'll be an extraordinary tie and an undeniably challenging one, I'm certain."
Talking about the game all the more explicitly, he added: "We showed what we are able to do last prepare.
"It's another season, an alternate second, yet we will be facing one of the huge sides and we'll give our very best for be in the semi-finals."
Alonso is presently away with Spain in front of their forthcoming friendlies with Albania and Iceland.
He will then get back to Chelsea in front of the conflicts with Real Madrid throughout the next few weeks.
