The 'stars' of the derby: Benzema and Suárez aim at Madrid-Atlético

The Real Madrid and Athletic of Madrid go back to see the faces this Sunday 12 December in the derbi of the capital of Spain. Both clubs confront after confirming his classification to the eighth of final of the Champions League, although the ones of Carlo Ancelotti arrive with better feelings and with a striking series of nine parties with victories. The Atleti, by his part, lives his more irregular moment and has left the feeling to be very far of the version of the team that won LaLiga the past course.

Nevertheless, in this moment there is an important point in which they converge both teams: The presence of his 'cracks' is not ensured. In the side of the Real Madrid, Karim Benzema will be doubt until last hour, after falling lesionado in the last day, against the Real Sociedad. The French suffered muscular annoyances, but in the proofs determined that it does not treat of a grave injury. The medical services of the White House decided to give him rest against the Inter, but already would be totally recovered and 'smart' to take action.

It concerns, however, that this alone Friday was in a part of the training with the rest of his mates. Benzema Has been working during these days in the gymnasium to recover completely, but his intention is to reappear in a duel importantísimo for the Real Madrid, with which can increase the difference of points with the Athletic. In any case, of not being the French, could jump like headline Luka Jovic, as it happened this week in the Champions League.

In the Athletic, on the other hand, there is confidence in that Luis Suárez will be smart to play the derbi. The 'Gunman' lesionó in the party against the Carry, during the first minutes of the clash, but descartó an injury of gravity. The picture 'colchonero' aimed that his evolution would mark the availability for the visit to Santiago Bernabéu, but the feelings are good in the previous and is likely that go in in the announcement.

This Friday, Luis Suárez was present in the session of training of the Athletic of Madrid and exercised with total normality and without traces of the annoyances that forced him to abandon the field of the Do Dragao the past Tuesday. His evolution, in any case, is positive. In case of not being smart and to the one hundred percent, Cunha could be an option for the 'Cholo' Simeone.

A 'derbi' important for Madrid and Athletic

Although the two stars of the derbi will be doubt to the end, for the Real Madrid and Athletic is a very important clash. The picture directed by Carlo Ancelotti is leader in solitary, with 39 units, and with positive feelings after the Champions. To the madridistas, however, are hurting him with very little, especially to unemployed balloon; something that could take advantage of the Atleti.

The ones of the 'Cholo' Simeone come to win to the Carry, but suffering (in spite of the result). Three days before, had fallen home in front of the Mallorca (1-2). At present they occupy the fourth position of LaLiga, with 29 units, ten less than the Madrid, although with a party less. The team arrives with a lot of drops: Giménez, Savic or Vrsaljko.
