Real Madrid is an invincible leader, Atlético de Madrid is unpredictably irregular, not even the very early dates of the course, the sixth matchday, lighten the weight, responsibility and dimension of this Sunday’s derby at the Cívitas Metropolitano; to the limit for the red and white team, at risk of falling out of the League and eight points below the white team, which defends its full and its summit from the stalking of the rest.
The pressure is absolutely on the team Diego Simeone, who has one less game and recovers Koke Resurrección and Memphis Depay. The opportunity belongs to Carlo Ancelotti’s group, which has Vinicius. It is not a definitive derby because of everything that remains for the resolution of the championship, but the current distance exposes Atlético in a visible way: a visitor victory in the rojiblanco stadium would be a tremendous blow for them, as would also mean the resounding reaffirmation of the sole plenary session that Real Madrid still holds.
Atlético moves in that risk, which contrasts its current strength at home; the ten consecutive victories they have accumulated in their stadium, with 29 goals in favor, almost three per game, and six against. Since January 8, 2023, in the 0-1 victory with which Barcelona won, they have not lost a duel in front of their fans. Their record at home, also with Simeone, is 14 consecutive victories. Dates from February 2013.
They are not available for the derby Rodrigo de Paul nor Pablo Barrios nor Caglar Soyuncu nor Reinildo Mandava nor Thomas Lemar. The first three, due to various muscular mishaps. The Mozambican full-back, due to the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, which is now finalizing its tune-up. And the French international, due to the rupture of his right Achilles tendon that he suffered a week ago and for which he underwent surgery last Monday.
Koke Resurrección and Memphis Depay are already ready from muscle injuries. The doubt is whether they will both be starters in Diego Simeone’s scheme, in which José María Giménez in the center of defensealong with Stefan Savic and Mario Hermoso, with the alternative also of César Azpilicueta, and Nahuel Molina and Samuel Lino in the lanes.
For Real Madrid, who will be short of troops in attack, the absence of ‘Vini’ for a month due to a muscle injury caused a considerable drop in punch. Up to 48 shots in his last two games. Only fifteen on goal to score three goals. The team that finishes the most in LaLiga 2023-24 and with the lowest success percentage. Ten goals in 92 attempts.
With an obvious change in style, a greater number of centers into the area looking for the finish of a pure ‘9’ like Joselu. The need for long-distance full-backs with a key point in the most populated center of the field. There, the figure of Jude Bellingham, who arrives at his first derby after being scared by some stomach problems, but radiant with six goals in his first six games. Absolute reference.
It is in the core where Ancelotti You must make the most difficult decisions. The time to start one of the big games of the season without Luka Modric or Toni Kroos. The options of joining them at the beginning have been reduced. Aurélien Tchouaméni is indisputable as a midfielder and playing Fede Valverde or Eduardo Camavinga is even more complicated for the Italian coach due to the physicality they bring to his team.
Ancelotti must decide the right back, after giving the alternative to Lucas Vázquez in ‘Champions’, with the more defensive option of betting on Nacho Fernández. On the other side is the return to the eleven of Fran García in his first derby. Like Kepa in goal on one of those days in which it will be shown whether Courtois’ shadow is long. Modric is aiming for a substitute and between Camavinga and Valverde there is an expensive place in the center of the field.
In attack, Real Madrid, which has only lost one of its six visits to the Metropolitano, needs Rodrygo from the last derby at Atlético de Madrid’s home. The Brazilian has lost the goal and, despite being indisputable, has not scored since San Mamés on the first day.
