Team News

Real Madrid
Atletico
  • According to multiple reports, Luka Modric is set to leave the club at the end of the season.
  • If all goes well against Getafe on Thursday night, Real will be able to extend their lead at the top of La Liga with a victory over Atletico Madrid.
  • Alvaro Morata is out with a fresh muscle injury and will be sidelined for at least two weeks. Memphis Depay, having scored two goals in two games, should take his place in attack.
  • January signing Arthur Vermeeren was handed his debut in the match against Rayo, but could be benched for the Madrid derby on Sunday evening.
  • Pablo Barrios should start following a string of impressive performances.

Prediction

  • Real Madrid welcome Atletico Madrid to the Bernabeu on Sunday evening to seek their second victory over their noisy since the turn of the year. Atleti won 4-2 in the Copa del Rey two weeks ago and 3-1 in La Liga back in September.
  • Atleti are without Alvaro Morata, who scored twice last time the two met in La Liga, but Memphis Depay has grabbed two in the last two for Simeone's men and will be looking to announce himself in the spotlight in a big way on Sunday.
  • Jude Bellingham recently told interviewers he 'could never have imagined how big Real Madrid was.' He can reach 20 goal contributions in the league if he can score or assist on Sunday.
