Real Madrid’s Revenge
After three derbies this season, Real Madrid will finally get to play at home against Atletico in early February. They will be looking for revenge for their previous defeat and are hoping to come out on top in the upcoming matches against their city rivals to boost their success in domestic competitions.
Atletico’s Best Chance for Silverware
