Real Madrid will be keen to forget their only two losses of last season when they take on fierce local rivals Atletico Madrid - the winners in both of those defeats, who are now an even stronger proposition,

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti will make changes to his team's system and line up when they face crosstown rivals Atletico Madrid in the derby on Sunday night.

The first Madrid derby of this season is this Sunday at Estadio Metropolitano in La Liga with Atletico Madrid playing host to bitter rivals Real. Diego Simeone's men last won the Spanish title in 2020-21 and they were not expected to beat Barcelona or Los Blancos to this campaign's crown but beating Carlo Ancelotti's side here would certainly do some damage to Real's title hopes.
