Real Madrid hosts Atletico Madrid in round 13 Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, December 12th at Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium (Madrid)
The prospects for modern Real Madrid look rather vague. Zidane's men are not stable and have ominous problems with obtaining a tournament result, both in the local arena and in the Champions League. For the third year in a row, the Whites have suffered from a lack of personnel in the attacking line, which was previously compensated by brilliant Cristiano Ronaldo. Benzema is often injured, and Jovic and Mariano Diaz do not live up to expectations at all. Hazard again picked up a microtrauma, and he could not get out of a series of permanent injuries. Even Sergio Ramos began talking about a possible departure from Real Madrid, where he got tired of being a lifesaver, both in defense and in attack (two goals scored in Primera).

Diego Simeone and his charges are obliged to take advantage of the problems of the main competitors in the fight for the title (Barcelona and Real Madrid). The capital's team is the intermediate leader of the Spanish championship and has two matches in reserve. Due to their pragmatic approach to business, the Mattress Makers managed to go through 10 games of Primera without a single loss of points (two draws). In the Champions League, not everything is so smooth for the team, but it is gradually accomplishing its tasks even there. The balance in the squad is the main trump card of the current Atlético. If the team sorely lacked players in the attack in the previous season, now Suarez, Joao Felix, Llorente, Carrasco, and Correa securely close the problematic positions. The defense of the mattress Makers is working almost flawlessly - two goals conceded in 10 league matches.
Two grandees from Madrid are guaranteed to present the fans with an excellent football show. Currently, the state of the teams differs significantly. Atletico is in amazing shape, consistently gains points in the championship, and leads the standings. Real Madrid will have a hard time against such an organized opponent. The visitors should at least not lose in the derby.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Madrid to win with +0.5 handicap
