Points and bragging rights will be at stake at the Metropolitano Stadium on Sunday afternoon, as Atletico Madrid prepare to host city rivals Real Madrid.
Jose Mourinho's Real make the short trip across the capital in good spirits, having beaten Inter Milan, Rayo Vallecano and Elche in their last three outings.
Atleti head into this encounter following back-to-back wins over Real Sociedad and Osasuna in La Liga.
With both teams in form, an entertaining end-to-end encounter can be expected in the Spanish capital this weekend.

Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid Prediction
Best Bet: Real Madrid to win @ 1/1
Winning their last two meetings with Atleti, it's Los Blancos who have enjoyed the recent bragging rights in this long-standing rivalry.
While they have not kept a clean sheet in their last three games, Real have had enough quality going forward to ensure they are on a three-match winning streak going into Sunday's encounter.
With the likes of Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe in the final third, Real have the ability to take apart most defences and Atleti should be no different this weekend.
Alternative Bet: Vinicius Jr. anytime goalscorer @ 13/8
Already mentioned as a key attacking threat for Los Blancos, it's worth looking at Vinicius Jr. in the anytime goalscorer market on Sunday.
The Brazil international is on a five-game run without scoring, having last found the back of the net against Real Sociedad on 26th August.
However, Vinicius Jr. bagged a brace of goals in the last La Liga meeting between these sides back in March and the South American is well priced to get his name back on the scoresheet this weekend.
Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid Bet Builder Tip
Kylian Mbappe anytime goalscorer
Jonathan David anytime goalscorer
Ibrahima Konate to be booked
Pays 35/4
With both teams scoring in all of the last eight La Liga games between these sides, Real are likely to need at least two goals to win Sunday's clash.
Mbappe is in a rich vein of form, scoring in all of his last three games for Real and bagging four goals in that spell.
The Frenchman is fancied to find the back of the net this weekend, as is Atleti's Jonathan David, who has scored in each of his last two games.
Completing this three-fold Bet Builder, Ibrahima Konate has been shown yellow cards in three of his last four La Liga appearances and the former Liverpool defender is backed to pick up another booking at the Metropolitano Stadium.
