Barcelona travel to Spain’s capital to face Atletico Madrid in La Liga for a mouthwatering encounter on Sunday night.
Xavi faced Diego Simeone’s Atletico from Barcelona’s midfield on ten separate occasions as a player, losing just one game – the second leg of a Champions League quarter-final (W4 D5).
In the only managerial head-to-head between the pair, Xavi’s Barcelona came out on top in a 4-2 victory last February.
Here’s the XI Xavi may deploy to improve his impressive record against El Cholo.
