Atletico Madrid fullback Luis Filipe has taken a swipe at Real Madrid defender Pepe.

Ahead of the derby, the Brazilian was asked who he feared most, Cristiano Ronaldo or Pepe.

"Cristiano or Pepe? Very great question. Pepe is a player who maybe in other leagues would be punished for a long time, but here he has been allowed to do many things.

"(But) He's a great player that I respect a lot on the field."
