Good evening and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Real v Atleti in the Madrid derby.

First booking of the evening to Carvajal, after fouling Koke.

Chance for Benzema, but his shot is blocked in the box - possibly by Lemar, who's absolutely solid at the moment. Corner.

Here's Modric with a smile on his face before the match, though.

Foul by Rodrigo on Luka Modric.

Lemar sets up another chance for the firing Saul, again from outside the box, and this time heading just past the post.

Ah, there he is. He shoots wide, coming in from the left side of the box and firing past the far post.

Gareth Bale is quiet at the moment, but then again he could pull something out of the bag at any random second.

Griezmann is still looking lively - another chance from the edge of the box, struck left-footed, and saved well by Courtois.

He needs some treatment.

Corner to Real. Sergio Ramos gets his head to it and takes a blow in the process.

Lemar fouls Nacho - free kick for Real, who need to calm themselves and get their foot on the ball as a collective.

Some firm challenges going in as well, as you'd expect.

And Griezmann has the second clear-cut chance of the game, but his shot is high and wide. Ominous start from Atleti.

Well, this looks like it's going to be end-to-end. We start off with a chance from Saul, hitting it left-footed from the edge of the box.

We're off and running!

Time for friendly handshakes and embraces.
