This is the meeting that everyone is waiting for for this 6th day of La Liga. Atletico de Madrid host Real Madrid on their lawn in a derby which promises to be hot and exciting. Eighth in the standings, Diego Simeone’s team needs points to move up and get closer to the leading teams.
For its part, Real Madrid wants to continue its flawless performance at the start of the 2023-2024 financial year. Carlo Ancelotti’s men are still undefeated in La Liga with 5 wins in 5 matches. A perfect from Casa Blanca.
However, for this trip to the Colchoneros field, Jude Bellingham’s partners will once again have to do without the Brazilian Vinicius Junior. However, back in the group for this game, the Madrid striker withdrew at the last moment due to gastroenteritis according to information from journalist Carlos Rodriguez.
The Italian coach who seemed to be counting on his player will therefore have to once again change his plans for this shock.
The Brazilian international will also return to the Seleçao for the matches against Venezuela (October 12) and against Uruguay (October 17) as part of the qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup.
The Madrid winger should therefore make his comeback on the pitch during the next La Liga matchday against Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
