A madrid team lost in its last confrontation, against the Atletico Madrid, for the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey. However, with goals from Rodrygo, Benzema and Vinicius Jr., the Merengues managed to turn the game around and guarantee the classification.
The match was marked by the response of Vinicius Jr. to Atletico Madrid fans. During the last week, the striker suffered several racist attacks, something that has been recurrent on the eve of the classics between the teams.
In the last match for La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao by 2 to 0. This weekend’s duel is a direct confrontation for positions, as Real Sociedad has 38 points, three less than the hosts.
Real Sociedad were knocked out by Barcelona in the King’s Cup, after being defeated by 1-0, last Wednesday. The team has not lost in the Spanish Championship for six games and accumulates a sequence of five consecutive victories. In their last match for the competition, they defeated Rayo Vallecano by 2-0, away from home.
