Real Madrid will endeavour to return to winning ways when they begin their Club World Cup campaign against Al Ahly in the semi-finals on Wednesday.
Los Blancos suffered a major blow in their quest to retain the La Liga title when they lost 1-0 away against Mallorca on Sunday courtesy of a 13th-minute own goal from Nacho Fernandez.
Carlo Ancelotti's men have dropped points in three of their last five Spanish top-flight matches and they now find themselves eight points behind league leaders Barcelona.
Real Madrid now turn their attention to the Club World Cup with a semi-final encounter against Egyptian outfit Al Ahly, who have beaten Auckland City and Seattle Sounders to reach the last four.
