In the round of 32 in this competition, Real Madrid defeated regional side Cacerano 1-0.

Following that, it overcame fellow La Liga outfit Villareal 3-2 on January 9.

Atletico Madrid, moreover, has played two rounds more.

Then, it subsequently defeated Oviedo of the Second Division in the round of 32 by 2-0.

In the following round of 16, it defeated another Second Disvion side Levante – again by 2-0.

In La Liga, Real Madrid has won twice and lost once since the post-World Cup resumption.

Its most recent result was a 2-0 away win at Athletic Bilbao last weekend.

In total, it has lost two and won three of its last five league games – which therefore represents stuttering form in the pursuit of Barcelona.

It also lost 3-1 against Barcelona in the final of the Spanish Super Cup on January 15 in Saudi Arabia.

So coach Carlo Ancelotti will certainly be looking for some re-established consistency in the derby cup meeting of Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid.

However, Atletico Madrid has not been firing on all cylinders, either.

Since the post-World Cup re-start it has won twice in La Liga with one draw and one defeat – with its most recent result a 3-0 home win against Valladolid last Saturday.

It won only once in the Champions League and finished bottom of its group.
