Atletico Madrid welcome Barcelona to the Metropolitano on Sunday, November 8, for a La Liga encounter between the two leading sides in the table, with both clubs looking to strengthen their positions at the top.
The hosts occupy second place after collecting 28 points from a possible 33 and winning their last seven league matches, while Barcelona hold a two-point advantage at the summit with 30 points from the same number of games, having made light work of Alaves in a 6-1 victory last weekend.
Both sides were also in Champions League action during the week, although their respective outings produced contrasting results, as Atletico suffered a 2-0 home defeat to Bayern Munich while Barcelona cruised to a 3-0 victory over Aston Villa at Camp Nou.
Lamine Yamal continued his impressive scoring form by finding the net against Villa, becoming the highest-scoring teenager in Champions League history, while Alex Baena has quietly established himself as one of Diego Simeone's most dependable attacking outlets since joining Atletico.
