Athletico Madrid V/s FC Barcelona
The Vicente Calderon will host the title rivals and reigning Champions in the Spanish Capital.
Both sides have a 100% win in La Liga 2015-16. But atleast one of them have to end this weekend.
The 2013-14 campaign was the best for Athletico Madrid under Diego Simeone, and 2015-16 might be even better.
Athletico Madrid are one of the 5 teams which are yet to concede a goal in the 2015-16 La Liga. Simeone's side has many good players like Antoinne Griezmann, Jackson Martinez, Koke, Gabi etc.
Barcelona, did not have the perfect start they wanted from this Season. They have won both of the games but only by a goal difference- 1-0 in both the matches.
Leo Messi and Neymar are yet to score this Season, and it is likely that the drought will end tomorrow. Luis Suarez has been exceptional this Season.
