Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid score prediction
Thanks to their previous clash in La Liga and further fixtures in the Supercopa de Espana and Copa del Rey, this will be the fourth time Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have faced off in 2023/24.
It's Atletico who have enjoyed greater success so far, beating their rivals twice, but the trip to the Bernabeu presents a fresh challenge. Diego Simeone hasn't seen his side win at the stadium since 2016, while Los Blancos have only dropped points once in a home fixture all season.
Ancelotti's side have won three games since their Copa del Rey exit, albeit in less convincing fashion, and another tight victory might be in store.
Prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Atletico Madrid
