Current runner-up to FC Barcelona in La Liga, Real Madrid will have a lot to do late Sunday afternoon (4:15 p.m.), on the field of Atlético de Madrid (4th). For this final meeting before this long international break, José Mourinho will rely on 24 players, with obviously Kylian Mbappé, author of seven goals since the start of the season in the championship.
Vinícius Júnior, Jude Bellingham, Arda Güler and Yan Diomandé are also present in the Special One group, which only has three long-term absentees: Ferland Mendy, Eder Militão and Rodrygo, all injured for a long time. At the Metropolitano, the Merengues will notably try to string together a fourth victory, in all competitions, and will also try to reassure themselves after the unconvincing performance in Elche on Tuesday, despite the victory (2-3).
