Time for Madrid Derby

Spanish league weekend of the 13 will be presenting the Madrid derby on Saturday (11/26/2011). Held at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid will face rivals at once neighbors, Atletico Madrid.

History records, was 146 times the two teams battle in La Liga. Madrid is very dominant, winning 80 of them, and only lost 35 times.

Today, with a capital of 12 times winning streak in all competitions so far this season, especially playing at home, it is not surprising that Los Merengues can wash over the favorite to win again over the Los Colchoneros.

In contrast, Atletico has a poor record while serving away games in the season. Of the five times a visit to the headquarters of his opponents, they lost four times and never won.

El Real's squad is also more fit because of Cristiano Ronaldo and Iker Casillas coach Jose Mourinho rested in the Champions League two days ago. With three points clear of Barcelona at the top, Madrid certainly want to maintain that position, and hopefully can continue to stay away.

As for Barcelona this week will melakoni away, they travel to Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Perez. Victory in the previous week against Real Zaragoza, plus over AC Milan's Champions League last night, should be enough for them again showed good performance, after being held 2-2 by Athletic Bilbao at the beginning of the month.

Meanwhile, Valencia will try his luck at Rayo Vallecano, after miinggu then they swallow the bitter pill, 2-3 defeat of Real Madrid at the Mestalla. Levante will be visited by a black horse Sporting Gijon, while Sevila will be hosted by Real Zaragoza.
