Upon a timely return to winning ways last weekend, Atletico Madrid will head into this clash with a renewed confidence as they lock horns with city rivals on their own ground. And they will have their mind set on widening the gap between them and the champions.

In a desperate bid to keep their hopes of a title defence alive, Madrid will travel to Atletico's turf in search of a win that will help them gain ground on the leaders. While on the chase, the Champions experienced a little bump last weekend.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Team News

Having established himself as a club favourite, Diego Simeone continues to raise the level of respect he commands from the club faithful. His side have been outstanding this term, and they deserve all the plaudits they've been getting all season.

So far, so good for the capital giants who are at the top of the league table, having collected an impressive total of 58 points from 24 league games. Despite playing a game less than their closest challengers, they boast a 5-point cushion at the top of the log.

In their last league outing, the Rojiblancos secured a 2-0 victory at Villareal. Predictably, they started the match with purpose, forcing an own goal from their opponents before going in at break. The hosts grew into the game, but their chances of getting a result were hurt when Joao Felix scored the second goal for Atletico, ultimately sealing the three points for the visitors.

Real Madrid managed to claim a 1-1 draw against a resilient Real Sociedad side in their last league. Although the hosts started on the front foot, both sides went in at half time on level terms. But the visitors stunned the champions after restart when they grabbed the lead through Portu. However, Vinicius Junior salvaged a point for the hosts.

Prior to this stalemate, Madrid were on a 4-match winning streak. And having amassed a total of 53 points from 25 games, Los Blancos presently sit in 3rd-place on the league standings - albeit they're level on points with bitter rivals Barcelona who sit a place above due to a superior goal difference.

Zinedine Zidane have had to deal with injury concerns in his squad throughout this campaign. Nevertheless, he will encourage his fit and available players to keep their focus, as they look to tilt the title race a little in their favour.

In the reverse fixture, Real Madrid humbled Atletico Madrid by handing them their first defeat of the campaign. However, it is worth mentioning that this defeat left Atletico undeterred, as they went eight straight matches without dropping a single point - but have won just two in five games since that streak ended.

Injured or Suspended Players

Atletico Madrid: Jose Maria Gimenez.
Real Madrid: Sergio Ramos, Eden Hazard, Daniel Carvajal, Eder Militao, Karim Benzema, Mariano Diaz and Casemiro.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Predictions

Without any surprise, Atletico Madrid possess the best defensive record in the top flight. But that which seems to fly under the radar is their goalscoring exploits – with their attacking record only bettered by that of Barcelona.

Real Madrid have lost on the road just once this term, winning eight of their 13 away matches so far. Given both sides cannot afford to lose, this should be a cagey affair. We will go out on a limb to wager on no more than two goals between both sides come fulltime.
