Date:<\/strong> 03\/12<\/p> Time:<\/strong> 8:00 pm GMT<\/p> Location:<\/strong> Metropolitano, Madrid<\/p> Where to watch:<\/strong> The match can be watched on TNT Sports 3 in the UK, while it will also be available to watch on CBS Sports in the USA<\/p> Real Madrid won 2-1 in the first leg as Rodrygo gave the perfect start to the Los Blancos by netting in the fourth minute. Julian Alvarez scored for Diego Simeone’s men to equalize the score on the evening but Brahim Diaz’s winner gave Carlo Ancelotti’s men a slender 1-goal lead heading into the away leg.<\/p> Atletico started the competition with a win but lost two consecutive matches which almost derailed their Champions League campaign. Simeone then turned around things with five consecutive wins against Paris St. Germain, Sparta Praha, Slovan Bratislava, Bayer Leverkusen, and RB Salzburg to guarantee automatic qualification for Round of 16.<\/p> The Rojiblancos are also embroiled in a three-way race for the La Liga title but lost 2-1 to Getafe on the weekend, which would have dented the squad’s morale. With club captain Koke out with injury, younger players like Conor Gallagher will have to step up in midfield to turn around the tie.<\/p> Ancelotti currently has an injury crisis to deal with as Thibaut Courtouis, Antonio Rudiger, and Federico Valverde are doubts for Wednesday’s match while Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao are ruled out with their respective injuries. Unlike Atletico, Real Madrid won on the weekend as Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior scored in the first half to get an easy win and keep their title challenge on track.<\/p> Los Blancos also missed out on direct qualification and had to trounce Manchester City 6-3 on aggregate in the intermediary playoff round with Mbappe scoring a hat-trick in the second leg to set up the Madrid Derby in the Round of 16.<\/p> The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game.
