It’s the shock of the day. Atlético de Madrid hosts Real Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano this Sunday at 9 p.m. as part of the 8th day of La Liga, a match to follow live with commentary on our site. After the defeat of leader FC Barcelona against Osasuna, both clubs will want to win to get closer to first place in the standings and also prepare for the Champions League matches during the week.

Luka Modric will lead the Madrid midfield with Aurélien Tchouaméni, Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham in 10.
