The first Madrid derby of the season gets underway as Real Madrid, the only remaining club with a perfect record through the first five La Liga matches, visit rivals Atletico Madrid on Sunday.
Both these teams have been beset by significant injuries, with Atletico the latest to lose a key figure as Thomas Lemar went down with an Achilles tendon tear. He joins Rodrigo De Paul, Reinildo, Pablo Barrios, Caglar Soyuncu, and Vitolo on the shelf for this game.
Real Madrid won't have any sympathy, as they are winning despite the absence of Vinicius Jr, Thibaut Courtois, and Eder Militao for a decent length of time.
Those Madrid losses have been covered up by the sensational form of Jude Bellingham who just keeps rescuing his new club time and again, the latest being his 94th-minute winner against Union Berlin in their Champions League opener over the week. The goal marked his sixth for the club this year already and was the third time in their past four matches where Bellingham bagged a winner in the 80th minute or later.
