Real Madrid is in great form. Zinedine Zidane's team is sitting on the top of the standings in La Liga, wherein its last game beat Valladolid away 1-0. Kroos made the assist for Nacho to score on the 78th minute.

Real is unbeatable in the last 12 La Liga games, having a winning streak of three games, so Zidane's players have a three points advantage of the second Barcelona.

That is the big Madrid Clasico. Real beat Atletico in Saudi Arabia for the final of the Super Cup in the penalty shoot-out after a goalless draw. Real has not lost any of the last 20 games in all competitions, and its players are full of confidence.

On Wednesday, Real was impressive for once more, and they beat Zaragoza away 4-0 to make it to the next round of Copa Del Rey. Bale is closed to sign in Tottenham Hotspur.

Atletico is not in good condition, and its last results made rojiblancos to stay 10 points behind the 1st place where Real is. It is a game of proves for Atletico. If they lose, they do not have any chance to win La Liga this season. 

In their last league game, they stuck in a goalless home draw against Leganes. Their performance was not good at all. Atletico's fans are disappointed, and for the very first time, Simeone is under pressure on the bench. 

Carasco came back to Madrid from China. The Belgian star will rejoin the team in which he had some great moments. That is a useful addition to its roster, because Atletico has problems in creativity and scoring.

Besides, Atletico tries to sign Cavanni from PSG. Diego Costa and Felix are out, and that is a big problem for Atletico's offense. The defender Arias is also unavailable due to injury. Koke is doubtful.

The two teams have faced each other 67 times. Real Madrid has 36 wins, while Atletico has won 12 times, and 19 matches ended in a draw.

Hazard is out, so Benzema has more to do to give a boost to his team to win this game. A draw will be a failure for the home side, so the French striker has to be the main threat for rojiblancos.

Morata is in great shape, and Diego Simeone counts a lot on the Spanish striker to score against Real. Besides, Jan Oblak will be too busy, but he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
