Match Overview
The biggest match in all of Europe is perhaps the Madrid derby between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitano Stadium on 24 September, Sunday in La Liga. Both these teams will be vying for top honours in this game, although only one can emerge victorious by the end of the evening. It will be a big challenge for Real Madrid to come here.
Key Highlights
Atletico Madrid are ranked 2nd in goals scored per match (2.5 goals) this season. At the same time, they are unbeaten in their last 14 home games. On the other hand, Jude Bellingham is the competition's top scorer (5) so far and one of the biggest threats for Real Madrid. If Atletico manage to keep Bellingham quiet, they will be able to keep a lid on their opponents.
Injury Report
Atletico Madrid have a long list of injured players in their ranks, including the likes of Vitolo, Thomas Lemar and Rodrigo De Paul among others. Real Madrid, on the other hand, will be without Dani Carvajal, Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao and Vinicius Junior in this game.
Prediction
At the time of writing, Atletico Madrid are ranked in the seventh position of the league table with seven points to their name whereas their noisy neighbours Real Madrid are perched right at the top of the standings with fifteen points inside their kitty. They have won all the games they have played so far. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game.
