The 23rd week in La League brings tonight the derby of Spain's capital, between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

Local rivals will meet in “Santiago Bernabeu”, with the match being played by 9:00.

“Los Blancos” aim to win to continue their path to the title of champion, until “Los Colocheros” are fighting for a place on top fours, but they're not even unlikely for the best title in Spain.

The team, led by Carlo Anceplott, is going to be in great shape and will enter tonight after six consecutive victories in La League.

On the other hand, Diego Simeones' leaders travel after three consecutive victories.

Atletico has caused this season's only defeat to Real at the championship, after having triumphed 3:1 in the first encounter.

These two teams then met in Supercupa, Spain, where Real Madrid triumphed with a score of 5:3.

The last Madrid Derby was played at the King's Cup, where Atletico Madrid won with a score of 4:2.
