Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Preview and Team News
Atletico Madrid Team News
One of the biggest clashes in the Spanish calendar is here! The Madrid derby will see both of these legendary clubs from the capital city putting their best foot forward. Atletico, managed by the iconic Diego Simeone, tend to line up in a 4-4-2 formation, which puts a lot of attention on passing the ball and keeping it with themselves.
The two strikers up front – Julian Alvarez and Giacomo Raspadori – feed off the energy created by the weighted passes from their midfielders and get into good positions inside the box. However, Johnny Cardoso, Jose Gimenez, and Thiago Almada are unavailable for selection due to injuries.
Atletico won their previous game 3-2 against Rayo Vallecano. This win takes them only to eighth place in the table with nine points. Against Vallecano, Los Colchoneros put up a sublime performance, holding 61% possession and producing an xG of 3.61. They also took 20 shots, eight of which were on target, and posted an impressive passing accuracy of 87%.
Atletico Madrid predicted lineup vs Real Madrid (4-4-2): Oblak; Hancko, Lenglet, Le Normand, Llorente; Gonzalez, Barrios, Koke, Simeone; Raspadori, Alvarez.
Real Madrid Team News
Real Madrid, like their opponents, have three key players sidelined with injuries: Antonio Rudiger, Ferland Mendy, and Trent Alexander-Arnold. Of the trio, the latter, who arrived from Liverpool earlier this year, will perhaps be missed the most, as fans looked forward to his presence in defense.
The club sit top of the league table with six wins in as many games. Xabi Alonso will urge his wards to keep the momentum and not let their foot off the throttle. The manager favors a 4-2-3-1 formation, with central midfielders Daniel Ceballos and Federico Valverde playing vital roles in creating transitions.
Their wingers, usually Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, are quick on the ball and like to use their speed to overcome their opponents. One-on-one play on the flanks has, therefore, become a crucial component of the identity Alonso is building at Real Madrid. Los Blancos have kept one clean sheet in their last three outings, and this might be the only thing they’ll want to improve on in the upcoming fixture.
Real Madrid predicted lineup vs Atletico Madrid (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Garcia, Carreras, Huijsen, Asencio; Ceballos, Valverde; Vinicius, Guler, Rodrygo; Mbappe.
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Prediction
- Pick: Real Madrid to win or draw
- Odds: -256 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Atletico Madrid 1-2 Real Madrid
We expect Real Madrid to win or at least secure a draw. They head into this match as favorites given their dominant league form. The quality that they have in their ranks is much superior to what Atleti have, which can create a chasm between the sides as well.
Madrid’s flagbearer in the final third is striker Kylian Mbappe, one of the best players in the world. The Frenchman has already scored seven goals in the league, added an assist, and carries an xG of 6.07. Alongside fellow attackers Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr, Mbappe is part of a fearsome trio that’s bound to keep Atletico’s defenders on their toes throughout the game.
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Real Madrid to score the first goal
- Odds: -118 (20Bet)
Real Madrid’s superior firepower makes them strong candidates to score the first goal. Although the presence of Mbappe, Rodrygo, and Vinicius Jr is enough to create fear in the minds of their opponents, it’s actually their midfielders, Valverde and Ceballos, who create goalscoring opportunities with their vision and passing.
This duo, known for their wide coverage of the field, like to sit in front of their defenders when out of possession and then quickly drive forward with the ball when they get it back.
In their last match against Levante, which they won 4-1, Valverde had a passing accuracy of 95%, whereas Ceballos completed the most passes (89) with a near-Godlike accuracy of 99%! Both players finished the game with a perfect 100% long-ball completion rate.
