Atlético Madrid Prepares for an Intense Derby at the Bernabéu
Following their standout victory in the Copa del Rey against Getafe, Atlético Madrid faces a new challenge at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid. The red-and-whites, led by Diego Pablo Simeone, arrive at the match with the confidence of having secured two draws in their last two visits to this stadium in LaLiga.
Currently, Atlético is qualified for the round of 16 in the Champions League, while Real Madrid still needs to secure their place in the same competition. In LaLiga, Simeone’s team aims to continue winning, as they did recently against Mallorca (2-0) at the Metropolitano.
For their part, Real Madrid comes into the derby with a mixed record, following a defeat against Espanyol (1-0) and a victory against Valladolid (0-3). This match will be crucial in the battle for LaLiga standings, especially with just a one-point difference between the two teams in the table.
