Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid Prediction & Betting tips
The 23rd round of LaLiga brings us the derby of the city of Madrid between rivals Real and Atletico, the game scheduled for Saturday at 17:30. The round match between the two teams took place in the 6th round and Real Madrid won 2-1 on Atletico’s field, leading at halftime with 2-0. The two teams met once before this season, in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, where Real Madrid won 3-1 after extra time, at the end of the 90 minutes, the score being equal 1-1.
Real Madrid:
Real Madrid comes after five consecutive victories and has excellent morale before today’s derby. Before the confrontation with rival Atletico Madrid, Real achieved another spectacular victory in the UEFA Champions League round of 16, where they managed to win the away match against Liverpool 5-2, coming back from the score of 2-0 for the English. It was another spectacular return for Carlo Ancelotti’s team after last season’s matches in the UEFA Champions League with Chelsea, PSG or Manchester City. In LaLiga, Real Madrid is in 2nd place in the ranking with eight points less than Barcelona.
Atletico Madrid:
On the other side, Atletico Madrid is probably having its weakest season in recent years, being eliminated from the European group stage, eliminated from the Copa del Rey and in the championship it is in 4th place with 41 points, 18 away from the leader Barcelona and only four ahead of Betis. The only objective left this season for Atletico is not to lose the 4th place, which ensures direct qualification in the UEFA Champions League groups next season. In the previous round, Atletico Madrid won the home match with Athletic Bilbao 1-0.
