Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Competition – La Liga Stadium: Riyadh Air Metropolitano Date: 20th September 2026 Kick-off time – 15:15 GMT
Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid meet at Riyadh Air Metropolitano on Sunday with just two points separating them in the title race, Atletico’s home form offering some hope against a Real side who have lost only once all season. Atletico’s most recent result was a 4-0 home win over Osasuna, following a 0-3 away win at Real Sociedad the game before. Prior to those two wins, a 2-1 away defeat at Liverpool in the Champions League league phase was a disappointment after leading early, and before that a 3-0 home defeat to Ath Bilbao made it back-to-back losses either side of a 1-3 away win at Sevilla. Across these five matches Atletico have taken three wins and two losses, with both defeats coming in the middle of the run before the current two-game winning streak.
Real Madrid have been the more consistent of the two. Most recently they won 2-3 away at Elche, following a 4-1 home win over Rayo Vallecano the game before. Prior to those two wins, a 2-1 home win over Inter in the Champions League league phase started a run of three straight wins, and before that a 1-0 home defeat to Betis was their only blemish in the sample. Further back, a 4-0 home win over Malaga completes the run. Across these five outings Real Madrid have taken four wins and a single loss, with the Betis defeat standing as their only setback across the sequence.
Real Madrid hold a clear edge in this fixture, winning four of the last five meetings to Atletico’s one, with no draws in the sample. The most recent meeting finished 3-2 to Real Madrid at home in March, following a 1-2 away win for Real Madrid at the Metropolitano in January — the same stadium hosting Sunday’s game, and a result that shows Real Madrid have found a way to win there even away from home. Atletico’s only success in the run came 5-2 at home in September last year, while Real Madrid also progressed on penalties from a Champions League tie in March 2025 after a 1-0 defeat in normal time, underlining how difficult they’ve been to beat across this head-to-head.
Real Madrid sit 2nd on 15 points from six games, with Atletico 3rd on 13. A win for Atletico would take them to 16 points and move them above Real Madrid into 2nd place.
