Once again, Renault's main challenge is expected to come from former champions Ferrari who have captured five of the six U.S. Grands Prix staged at Indianapolis since 2000.
Schumacher has crossed first here four times, including last year's fiasco when just six cars took the start after the 14 with Michelin tyres withdrew after the parade lap.
Bitter American motor racing fans can expect a more competitive race this year with Alonso promising a better show and Schumacher needing a victory to keep his fading championship hopes alive.
"I think after what happened last year everyone is expecting a good show and we will put on a good show for them," promised Alonso. "We want to go on the track tomorrow and enjoy the weekend."
