Broadcast info
Who's playing? Atlético Madrid hosts Barcelona in Matchday 24 of La Liga. Los Colchoneros come fresh off a fine 4-2 win against Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champions League, while Barcelona had one of the poorest displays under Luis Enrique, but eventually prevailed thanks to a late penalty by none other than Lionel Messi.
The games between the red-and-white side and Los Blaugranas are usually pretty intense. Fans around the world should expect that kind of match on Sunday, when these clubs try to add three more points to their tally in the Spanish capital.
What time? Sunday, February 26, at 07:15 PST/ 09:15 CST/ 10:15 EST/ 15:15 GMT/ 16:15 CEST.
What stadium? Estadio Vicente Calderón, Atlético Madrid's home, will be the venue hosting this match for the last time. The legendary stadium will be replaced by a state-of-the-art facility next summer, which will be more than enough reason for Los Colchoneros to try and snatch the win here.
