La Liga: Atletico Madrid, Barcelona Go Head-to-head With Title In Play
Atletico Madrid: Spanish giants Atletico Madrid and FC Barcelona go head-to-head on Sunday night in a game that will have a huge bearing on the outcome of this season's title race. The teams will kick off the game with Barca a point ahead of Atletico in the table, but with a game in hand after Atletico lost 2-1 in Getafe last weekend, while Barca's match at home to Osasuna was postponed following the death of club doctor Carles Minarro.
A win for Barca in the Metropolitano would therefore put Barca four points clear, with the chance of making that seven if they eventually beat Osasuna, and effectively end Atletico's title hopes, reports Xinhua.
Both teams were in Champions League action in midweek, with Barca winning 3-1 at home to Benfica on Tuesday night to qualify for the quarterfinals of the competition in a game where coach Hansi Flick had the luxury of substituting key players, such as Pedri and Lamine Yamal well before the final whistle to give them a rest.
