Atletico Madrid host high-flying Barcelona in the standout fixture of this weekend’s La Liga schedule on Sunday night.
Diego Simeone’s side limped into the winter hiatus, finishing bottom of their Champions League group and suffering surprise defeats to Cadiz and Mallorca. However, the 2021 La Liga champions have won all three post-World Cup matches and go into the weekend’s games in fourth place.
Barcelona were pushed to extra time by third-tier CF Intercity in the Copa del Rey in midweek, narrowly avoiding a stunning upset after dropping points in the league against Espanyol on New Year’s Eve. The Catalans have the exact same record as Real Madrid after 15 league games and can’t afford any slip-ups in a desperately tight title race.
