Last weekend served up an extraordinary Madrid derby, as Atleti triumphed 5-2 to end their rivals’ 100% start to the campaign. Los Rojiblancos scored five again in midweek, and travel to Vigo this Sunday to take on winless Celta. Real Madrid also scored five in the Champions League, and they have a top-three showdown with Villarreal on Saturday.
