It was the first loss for Real in the season and only the second time they have dropped points in the season but more crucially, it comes right before a tough game, a Madrid derby which also holds a lot of importance in their quest for top spot on the La Liga standings. While Real slumped to their biggest defeat since their loss to Barcelona in December 2017, Atletico have been improving match after match and head to this game on three straight wins and unbeaten in four, having started the season in shaky fashion. They have scored at least twice in each of the last three games and have two straight clean sheets, heading to this game, the second between the two sides in recent times, after Atletico's 4 - 2 win over Real in the UEFA Super Cup. Whyile the loss to Sevilla will be an eye opener to Real Madrid, they will be happy to play at home again, where they have established a fortress, where they have six straight wins and are unbeaten in nine. Atletico have a loss in the last nine competitive away matches but they have four losses and just four wins and three clean sheets in their last 10 away matches in La Liga. The face a Real Madrid side with five straight wins in the league at home and unbeaten in the last 12 home games in the league, with 10 wins and four clean sheets.
