In a scintillating La Ligaclash, Atletico Madrid look to leapfrog Barcelona in the third position as they host a struggling Sevilla side.
Diego Simeone's men had the perfect opportunity to win against Getafe last week as they had a two goal advantage but the visitors netted two goals in the dying minutes of the game to salvage themselves a point. A frustrated Los Rojiblancos side will now be aiming to head towards the Christmas break with a win and increase the pressure on the sides above them.
Sevilla's endless woes in La Liga were finally halted after the Spanish outfit won just their third game of the campaign against relegation-threatened Granada. A win could see them displace the four teams above them but their form this season has signalled differently.
