A huge clash looms in Spain’s La Liga today as the Madrid rivals, Atletico and Real, come face to face with Real looking to break away from the field and Atletico looking to stay in touch.
This rivalry may not bring the hatred and passion of Real v Barcelona, but with Atletico really challenging the big two in 2013/14 it has far greater meaning than at any other time in recent years. Unfortunately for Atletico, they appear to be fading a fraction at the wrong time of year. Last week’s shock 3-0 loss to Osasuna saw them fall three points behind their cross-town rivals, while Real has hit top form following their 3-0 win over Elche and a crushing 6-1 win against Schalke in the Champions League mid-week. They look the goods.
