Preview: Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid

Sports Mole previews the action from this weekend's Madrid derby.

Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid meet in La Liga this weekend for what promises to be a heated derby clash.

The city rivals go into the match in third and second in the league table, with Atletico lying two points ahead of Real.

Gareth Bale could make his home debut for Real after missing the last two games through injury, providing support for Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo.

Atletico are expected to welcome back experienced striker David Villa, who will line up in attack alongside Diego Costa, replacing Leo Baptistao.

The visitors have a 100% record to maintain when they visit the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
