17:15 GMT: Real Madrid's predicted derby starting XI
Looking at the likely Real Madrid line-up for this Sunday's derby, it should be quite easy to predict apart from one position.

I think Rodrygo would be better bcz he's a proper winger who can cause threat to this defensive atletico..asencio is more like inside forward who likes to cut in and shoot...Rodrygo can use the width and create chances...
