It’s the game of the La Liga weekend, and by some distance.
However, the Atletico Madrid v Barcelona fixture only presents the Catalans with a chance to go fifth in the table at best.
A win at the Wanda Metropolitano is a tall order at the best of times, let alone when the Rojiblancos are the only unbeaten side in the division and Barca are still feeling their way into the season.
An uphill task it may be, but the blaugranes, on the face of it at least, were handed a stroke of luck with Luis Suarez having tested positive for coronavirus.
