Game Preview
Atletico’s form deteriorated in the world possible moment now. They haven’t won in the last five games and recorded two wins over the previous 10 contests. Elimination from the Champions League to Real was painful, and it seems that the title hopes are over.
The defense has been one hell of a problem for Simeone. Atletico had three clean sheets in 10 latest matches, and as a consequence, we saw all their failures.
Barcelona is pushing OK for the moment. They are relentless in the offense all year long, scoring 4+ goals in 20 matches. Hansi Flick’s unit rides a 6-game winning streak.
Meanwhile, Barca has not lost in the past 20 games, which is a fantastic result. In their last three La Liga fixtures, they scored 11 times and conceded only 3 goals.
Atletico Madrid vs. Barcelona Head to Head
We saw three games between these teams in the current season. Atletico won the first in Barca, 1-2. The following was also in Catalonia: a 4-4 Copa del Rey game, and the latest, another La Liga clash only at Wanda, 2-4 for Barca.
Atletico Madrid vs. Barcelona Predictions
The way Barcelona plays there won’t be room for Atletico to impose it’s tough and slow style of play. Plus Atletico has problems in defense. All this forces us to bet on Over 1.5 in the second halftime. That’s going to be when the action begins to unfold.
