Atletico Madrid – Real Madrid, Prediction – La Liga

🔥 Atletico Madrid won a very important match and increased the difference again

Atletico Madrid won 2-0 as a guest of Villarreal, and this time Suarez did not score. The difference with Real at the moment is 5 points as Atletico has a game in hand 13 rounds before the end of the championship. Simeone somehow has to distribute the forces of his team fighting in the Champions League with Chelsea, from which he lost in the first match. The most important thing for Atletico is that almost all important players of the team are healthy. Jimenez, Carrasco, and Trippier remain injured.

❌ Real Madrid with a key failure before the derby

Real Madrid failed to beat Sociedad on Monday and thus put themselves in an awkward position before the derby. This broke a series of 5 consecutive successes for Los Blancos in the league and even Barça overtook them in the standings by goal difference. Everyone at Real is praying for Benzema to be ready for the meeting with the local rival. Rodrygo and Vinicius should also take part in the match. Real Madrid has only 1 loss as a guest this season, so we can expect a strong performance from them.

It is logical for Atletico to be extremely pragmatic in this match

 Expert view: We will bet on Under 2.5 goals at 1.66 as the main reason is that for Atletico the draw works. Purely theoretically, if Atletico draws with Sevilla, Barça and Real Madrid will stop them from catching up with them, and there is little chance that these teams will win all their other matches even more so that they play each other. This will be Atletico’s approach – defensive and cautious. This season we have often commented on the good defense of Real Madrid, so in any case, this bet seems quite likely to win.
