From the source
Barcelona will take on Atletico Madrid this weekend at the Metropolitano, in what would be a high stakes encounter in the context of the La Liga title race.
It will be a must-win game for Hansi Flick’s men, who had to endure two defeats at the hands of Diego Simeone last season and will have a point to prove heading into this encounter.
What will be even more interesting to see is Julian Alvarez. The Argentine, who was heavily linked with a move to Barcelona in the summer, will take on the Catalans for the first time this season.
