Jose Mourinho told to drop struggling Real Madrid superstar for Atletico Madrid derby

Real Madrid are preparing to face Atletico Madrid in La Liga at the Metropolitano, and Jose Mourinho's side will be keen to get one over their city rivals.

A trip to the home of Los Colchoneros has proven to be a bogey fixture for Los Blancos in recent seasons.

It is not often that you see Real Madrid show a pattern of struggling at a particular ground against a particular opponent.

Mourinho will be keen to set the record straight this time around and send a statement with a victory tonight, and he has some key decisions to make on the starting line-up.

The Portuguese tactician has been urged to make a huge selection call for Real Madrid's derby against Atletico Madrid, with journalist Ivan Martin arguing that Vinicius should lose his starting place to Yan Diomande.
