Barcelona continue their busy schedule to start the new year with one of the toughest games of the season as they travel to the Spanish capital to face Atlético Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday in the marquee game of the La Liga weekend.
Barça will most likely start the game in second place in the table if Real Madrid don’t lose to Villarreal on Saturday, so the Blaugrana must look for a win against Diego Simeone’s side. Atlético have had an inconsistent season and while they aren’t title contenders at this point, they will get closer to the two top teams with three points and could start dreaming big.
