Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid LIVE streaming info, La Liga 2024-25: When, where to watch; Preview; Predicted lineups

Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid meet in their second derby of the season with the Liga lead on the line and the focus on refereeing.

Real Madrid has spent the days ahead of Saturday’s match complaining of mistakes against the club.

Atletico Madrid has used the buildup to accuse Real Madrid of trying to put pressure on the referees.

Real Madrid enters the match at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium with a one-point lead over Atletico Madrid.

The gap between them narrowed in the last round after Real Madrid lost at Espanyol 1-0 and said it was hurt by refereeing mistakes. The defending league champion took the unusual step of sending a strongly worded complaint to the Spanish federation and the nation’s top sports authority.

The letter sparked widespread reaction across the league, and Atletico Madrid was among those who weren’t happy. The club took to social media to alert to what it called Real Madrid’s attempt to intimidate refs.
