The result of autumn’s duel was 1:1 and both rivals would gladly repeat that.

Atl. Madrid vs Villarreal

This is the third straight derby for Atletico as after Barcelona and Real Madrid they will face Villarreal. Excellent performance against city rivals wasn’t crowned with victory although it was one of the rare times Atletico deserved it. A draw wasn’t much of a help for Atletico as Malaga and Deportivo won their games and thus leapfrogged Madrid side on the standings. Villarreal won Espanyol and thus held on to the fourth place. Five points ahead of Atletico will be great motivation for the home side to close the gap on two points only.
