Team News

Atletico
Real Madrid
  • Atleti will be without a further two players available for selection - Caglar Soyuncu and Thomas Lemar.
  • Memphis Depay nears a return to the team, but will not be rushed into this one.
  • Lucas Vazquez should come in to replace the injured Dani Carvajal.
  • Vinicius Junior is a doubt for this one, still recovering from a thigh injury.
  • Joselu, now seemingly a starter, is the only player to score in his first three home games for Los Blancos since Isco in 2013.

Prediction

  • Both squads are wearing thin going into the first Madrid derby of the season, with long respective injury lists. Atletico are looking to bounce back from a shocking 3-0 defeat at Valencia whilst Real seem to get over the line in every one of their games thanks to the brilliant Jude Bellingham.
  • Real's chance creation against Union Berlin in the Champions League midweek was the lowest generated all season, and some have questioned the team's sustainability to keep winning despite a 1-0 victory. Atletico also played well in Europe but conceded a 94th-minute equaliser against Lazio.
  • This one should be a ferocious affair, but both will be likely to keep it tight - this one could end in a goalless draw.
