Game Preview
Real wants to win the La Liga title again, and it will be much easier if they win this event. Atletico is breathing down their necks, one point behind, though Real is almost perfect at home, winning nine of 10 events and scoring 28 goals.
Until losing to Espanyol this weekend, they had five wins in a row, all of them netting three or more goals. It’s safe to say that despite that slip in Barcelona, their attack is excellent. However, they bounced back with a last-minute win over Leganes in Copa del Rey on Wednesday, 2-3.
