AC Milan\u2019s trip to face Cremonese is another test of patience against a compact defensive side, while Roma versus Juventus is the marquee fixture of the round.

Atletico Madrid\u2019s visit to Real Oviedo demands focus and efficiency against motivated opposition. The Seville derby between Real Betis and Sevilla adds fierce local pride to the mix, while Real Madrid hosting Getafe rounds off the action, with Los Blancos expected to push for maximum points as
