Barcelona-Atletico Madrid is a match valid for the 15th day of La Liga and is played Sunday at 9 p.m.: lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
In pursuit of Real Madrid. And Girona, too. On equal points. Although Simeone’s Atletico Madrid has one game less. The challenge at the Olympic Stadium in Catalonia, the one between Xavi’s and Simeone’s troops, will close an important Sunday inside La Liga. One could really find out the real antagonist of Ancelotti’s lineup.
Yes, because we still can’t give that much credit to Girona, which, however, remains in the noble zones of the ranking and hopes to stay there for quite some time. So one of the two will have to somehow try to make life difficult for the Blancos, who have made the best start to the season and have no intention of abdicating. But who comes out best in the day’s big match? Let’s find out.
Barcelona last week drew at the field of Rayo Vallecano in what is a clash the Catalans would like to take off their calendar since they never win. Then victory in the Champions League for Xavi’s men secured qualification. Atletico have also secured passage to the round of 16 of the Champions League, but unlike the blaugrana they have a clear path from four games to date with as many wins. In short, they come best to the guests who are having an important season and believe they can stay on top for quite some time.
The prediction
The match could definitely give at least one goal per team. And it could certainly end in a draw. It seems unlikely that Barcelona could overcome a stout Atletico Madrid to take the full stake. Should you not want to play the final X, the advice is to watch out for an outside shot that would be sensational.
