Cristiano Ronaldo enters Saturday's derby showdown against Atletico Madrid with a solitary LaLiga goal to his name this season.

Nevertheless, it would be a brave punter who bet against Real Madrid's talisman getting on the scoresheet when he graces the Wanda Metropolitano for the first time.

Since moving to Madrid from Manchester United in 2009, Ronaldo has been Atleti's chief tormentor in these hotly anticipated capital clashes.

Using Opta data, we take a closer look at the four-time Ballon d'Or winner's phenomenal record in El Derbi.

Ronaldo also has a pair of away LaLiga hat-tricks versus Espanyol and Sevilla.
