Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid Preview and Team News

Real Madrid Team News

Real Madrid suffered an unexpected defeat against Espanyol in the previous LaLiga round. The visitors looked unusually lacklustre and failed to deliver a convincing display and eventually, a late goal from Carlos Romero sealed the victory for the hosts.

There were alerting signs for Carlo Ancelotti’s men in Copa del Rey too against Leganes. They barely survived a scare, leading 2-0, but the hosts drew and a stoppage time header from youngster Gonzalo Garcia ensured the advancement of Real Madrid. 

Ahead Atletico, Real have serious worries especially in the centre of the defence. Antonio Rüdiger got injured against Espanyol and he will miss the fixture. Moreover, Éder Militão and Davide Alaba are absentees and Ancelotti will probably use Raúl Asencio as a centre-back. 

Real Madrid predicted lineup vs Atlético Madrid (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Mendy, Vazquez, Asencio, Tchouaméni; Valverde, Ceballos; Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr, Bellingham; Mbappé.

Atlético Madrid Team News

In recent months, Atletico have established themselves as one of top contenders in LaLiga, winning 19 out of the previous 21 matches. In the previous round of LaLiga, they eased through Mallorca and in the Copa del Rey, they thrashed Getafe (5-0).

Diego Simeone has always been known for his pragmatic approach and defensive style, but this season things have changed for Atletico. The club are more effective in the attack, thanks to quality forwards including Julián Alvarez, Antoine Griezmann and Alexander Sørloth.

Compared to Real Madrid, the visitors have no injury worries. Only Robin Le Normand will miss the clash. The Spanish defender has reached the limit of five yellow cards and is suspended. 

Atlético Madrid predicted lineup vs Real Madrid (4-4-2): Oblak; Llorente, Lenglet, Gimenez, Mandava; Lino, Barrios, Koke, De Paul; Alvarez, Griezmann.

Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid Prediction 

  • Pick: Real Madrid to Win
  • Odds: -115 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Atlético Madrid

In the past 15 years, matches between these two sides have become a classic. At one point, Atletico dominated their rivals in LaLiga but the situation has been equal in recent years. For instance, in the previous seven H2H matches, six ended in a draw in regular time.

The first encounter in LaLiga last year turned out to be dramatic, with Marcos Llorente equalizing the score in the 95th minute. However Real were better throughout the match.

Despite problems in the defence, we think that at Santiago Bernabéu the formidable trio of Vinicius, Bellingham and Mbappé will grab a victory. Our first pick of this match is Real Madrid to win. 

Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Both Teams to Score
  • Odds: -143 (22Bet)

The teams have exchanged goals frequently and the last eight H2H matches ended with both teams scoring in all tournaments. Added to that, Real Madrid have considerable problems in the defence and they struggle to keep a clean sheet against top-tier opponents.

As for Atletico, Simeone’s defence is still fearsome, but we don’t think they will be able to withstand the hosts’ powerful attackers. Kylian Mbappé is gradually finding his form and will cause problems for the visitors.

The clash will be principal and the clubs will try to act cautiously, but we also expect an entertaining display. Our second pick would be both teams to score.
