LiontipsReal Madrid vs. Atletico. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga
Command Analysis
Carlo Ancelotti praised his team for a brilliant comeback in the Champions League against Liverpool. Madrid team was 0:2 down, but eventually secured a 5:2 victory in a blockbuster mid-week encounter. Hosts need to maintain that level of performance, if they want to catch Barcelona in La Liga.
But right now the Blancos are getting ready for 232nd El Derbi Madrileno against the crosstown rivals Atletico. Three consecutive clean sheets in home La Liga matches and no defeats in Primera since last March makes Los Blancos optimistic ahead of the upcoming game.
Tchouameni, Mendy, Diaz and Alaba will miss the upcoming game.
Atletico got eliminated from European competitions and lost to Real Madrid in the quarter-final of Copa del Rey, so now team can concentrate solely on La Liga. They have an easier schedule than their today's opponent. After Copa del Rey defeat, team had a four-game unbeaten run, but scored only one goal in each of these games.
Club's boss Diego Simeone said that a 1:0 victory over Athletic Bilbao was a big one, but a game against Real Madrid will surely be much more difficult for Atletico. After 22 matches of the current season the Mattresses have 12 victories and five draws, delivering 41 points and a 4th position in the standings.
De Paul and Lemar will miss the upcoming game.
