From the source

Following their wins against Alaves and Aston Villa, FC Barcelona are once again set to face a difficult match as they will be visiting the Spanish capital to face Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano.

The Colchoneros are currently standing second in the league table, only two points behind the Blaugranes, and thus, both the sides will be looking to win on Sunday and end the matchday at the top of the table.

This will be quite a complicated game for the Catalans for several reasons. They will be playing at Atletico’s stadium, which means the hosts will have a clear advantage.
