Zapping Our Mondial Real Madrid: Karim Benzema unbeatable and essential?
Barça is now back to the wall. The 2 draws conceded in the last 3 games have allowed Real Madrid to take the lead in La Liga alone with 2 points ahead. Deprived of De Jong and Dembélé, the Catalans recorded the return to their group of the versatile Sergi Roberto.
Atlético de Madrid has just had 4 successes in the league and aims to consolidate its 3rd place. In addition to the quality of the opponent, the main concern of Diego Simeone’s men is the absences for suspensions of Koke and Savic.

Compared to the team held in check at Celta Vigo (2-2) on Saturday, the good news is the return of suspension from Sergio Busquets before the defense. He should be accompanied in the midfield by experienced Rakitic and Vidal even if the young Riqui Puig applies for a place in the eleven thanks to his last remarkable appearances. Feverish in the last game, Samuel Umtiti should take his place on the bench in favor of Clément Lenglet while Antoine Griezmann should be aligned against his former club despite his poor shape.

Diego Simeone announced it at a pre-match press conference, his team should still revolve around a reinforced environment with defensive solidarity as the # 1 watchword. The suspension of Savic should benefit Felipe, back from injury, while Arias is announced with a head start over Trippier to hold the right flank of the defense. Hector Herrera should benefit from the defensive strategy put in place by Simeone to start while Diego Costa should lead the attack alongside Joao Felix. Yannick Ferreira Carrasco, Thomas Lemar, Angel Correa and Alvaro Morata will be the potential offensive cartridges for leaving the bench.
