This season's first Madrid derby takes place on Saturday at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano when Atlético Madrid hosts Real Madrid.

The two rivals are off to very different starts to the season. Real Madrid has won all seven of its matches so far under new coach Xabi Alonso, winning six La Liga games as well as its Champions League opener against Marseille.

Atlético, meanwhile, has stumbled to a 2W-3D-1L start in La Liga and also lost to Liverpool in its Champions League opener. That has put the pressure on Diego Simeone's side to earn a result at home that could potentially change the trajectory of its season.

Kylian Mbappé has been in sensational form to begin the season, scoring nine goals in seven appearances in all competitions for Los Blancos.

Atlético striker Julián Alvarez started the season off slow, but the Argentine scored a stunning hat trick midweek in a 3-2 comeback win over Rayo Vallecano.
