Real Madrid are set to take on Atletico Madrid in the season's first El Derbi in La Liga, on September 18, 2022, at the Wanda Metropolitano. Los Blancos got off to a perfect start in the domestic competition winning all five matches. But there is little doubt that their credentials will be tested when they will go up against Diego Simeone's troops away from home. They head into this fixture on the back of a comfortable 2-0 win over RB Leipzig and will hope to maintain the momentum against their cross-town rivals.

Meanwhile, Atletico, are in the seventh spot with 10 points having won three out of their five matches. They registered a convincing 4-1 win over Celta Vigo in their last La Liga outing but fell to Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League in midweek.
