Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has declared Atletico Madrid title favourites.
The two teams meet later today.
"They are showing it on the pitch, they are first and have always been a competitive team," said Zidane. "We know the opponent but what interests us is what we will do tomorrow."
Zidane is happy with the wins over Sevilla and Borussia Monchengladbach and now he's not thinking about the future.
"You always ask about what will happen, but first we have to play the game to show who we are as a team," he explained. "It will be a hard game but we have to play and give everything. Don't think about the result. The players are capable of doing extraordinary things.
"We'll try to win without thinking about anything else. What we want is to defend the title that we won last season and we'll try to until the end. I'm convinced we'll keep going until the end."
