Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid have played seven times this season. Real Madrid have failed to win all seven times. And after a 0-0 draw at the Vicente Calderon in the first leg of their Champions League tie, they’re going to need to reverse that trend if they want to go through to the next round. A 0-0 draw means extra time, while any scoring draw sends Atléti through.

Do you like 0-0 draws? Boy, do we have some 0-0 draws.
And don’t be shocked if another 0-0 draw and extra time is what we see here. There are grumblings that Carlo Ancelotti could move Pepe up into the midfield in a Jose Mourinho-style trivot, which would probably lead to a match with very few chances for either team.
The injury list isn't terribly long for Real Madrid, but the missing players are some of their most important. Marcelo, Luka Modric and Karim Benzema are out for sure, while Gareth Bale isn't expected to play either. The only player missing for Atlético Madrid is Mario Suarez, who is suspended. Tiago will start in his place.
