Real Madrid dominated Liverpool at Anfield and now is returning back to Spain to fight against its local rivals. A match such as Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid is always something a football fan should watch, as there is more to this than just the need for the three points. The teams competed against each other almost a month ago, when Real won 3-1 in extra time for the Spanish Cup.

Each time someone doubts the recent form or the abilities of Real Madrid, the team manages to prove them wrong, making a fantastic display of what it’s capable of. Before the Champions League Last-16 round game vs Liverpool, many thought that Merengues were not at their best. Early in the game, they were losing 2-0, but then everything changed. They scored twice (with Vinicius’ brace) before the half ended, adding three more in the second part of the game. Beating Liverpool 2-5 is once in a lifetime achievement. In Spain, the Queen prevailed over Osasuna (0-2), trying to reach Barcelona at the top spot of La Liga standings, but Real is 8 points behind Blaugrana.
For this weekend’s matchup, Ferland Mendy is the only definite absence. Carlo Ancelotti will recess the readiness of Kroos and Tchouameni, even though the German played some minutes against Liverpool. Alaba is the new injury, but no one is sure yet about his fitness status.
Atletico Madrid managed to win a very competitive encounter against Athletic Bilbao. Antoine Griezmann was the scorer in this match, helping his team put a steady foot in the top four, which gives a ticket to next season’s Champions League group stage. Rojiblancos may have been eliminated from the Champions League (they finished last in their respective group) and the Copa Del Rey (losing to Real Madrid), but they seem to be in good form. They are on a seven-game streak without a loss in the league (5 wins and 2 draws) and they haven’t lost any of their last three away games. Simeone found the balance on the defensive front, as the team conceded 4 goals in the past 6 clashes overall.
Diego Simeone has any fitness concerns for the Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid game and he is ready to choose his starting-11 from a completely healthy squad. The Argentinian coach waits for the situation regarding Thomas Lemar’s knee injury in the game versus Athletic Bilbao.
Real Madrid is offered at 1.82 and Atletico Madrid at 4.55, with the draw set at 3.70.
The over/under line is set at 2.5 goals, with the over at 1.95 and the under at 1.86.
The Both Teams to Score Option is valued at 1.85, and the “No” is at 1.93.
First Half Result: Draw @2.15
