Football: Barcelona Host Atletico Madrid In A Pivotal La Liga Clash
Camp Nou Stadium: Old rivals FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are set to meet in a crucial match in the Spanish La Liga at the Camp Nou Stadium in Barcelona on Tuesday. The match, along with Wednesday's contest between Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid, was moved forward from January because all four teams will compete in the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia next month.
Barcelona enter the game atop the table after a 3-1 home win over Deportivo Alaves on Saturday. However, Hansi Flick's side was made to work hard by the Basque team, and Flick admitted they will need to improve against an Atletico Madrid team that now sits just three points behind in the standings.
Atletico enjoyed a more comfortable 2-0 home win over a limited Real Oviedo on Saturday, with two first-half goals from Alexander Sorloth. Coach Diego Simeone was able to conserve his players' energy in the second half with an eye on Tuesday's match, reports Xinhua.
