La Liga meet Barcelona on September 21 and Real Madrid on November 20 in LaLiga in 2016-17, with Athletic Bilbao their final game.

Atletico Madrid begin their 2016-17 La Liga campaign against new boys Alaves and Leganes.

Diego Simeone's men host the Basque side side on August 21 before they make the short trip to Estadio Municipal de Butarque on the outskirts of the capital.

A trip to the home of champions Barcelona on September 21 kicks off a tough run for Atleti, with away matches against Valencia and Sevilla following in October, before the first derby with Real Madrid at the Vicente Calderon on November 20.

They could consider their run-in to be somewhat favourable, however, after the return fixture at the Santiago Bernabeu on April 9, they face Osasuna, Espanyol, Villarreal, Las Palmas, Eibar and Real Betis, before Athletic Bilbao visit on the final day of the season in what could be the last game at the Vicente Calderon.
