Atletico Madrid play host to Barcelona in what will undoubtedly be one of the most-anticipated matches of the La Liga season. This contest provides the Catalan club an opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the table following Real Madrid’s defeat. Real had suffered a shock 2-1 loss to Villareal on Saturday. It opens the door for Barcelona to consolidate their position at the top of the standings, however, the task at hand on Sunday night will not be an easy one for them.

Sitting at the top of the standings, Barcelona currently have the same 38 points as second-placed Real Madrid. However, they can now surge clear at the top if they can get the three points at Wanda Metropolitano. Form is also on Barcelona’s side even though they were held to a draw in their last La Liga match by Espanyol. That is because Atletico Madrid have been massively inconsistent in the league this season. They are placed 4th in the table and have 27 points from 15 games.
