Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona: Preview, free tip and statistics

Saturday's programme of the top Spanish competition will be closed by a closely watched duel between the two La Liga title contenders. Atletico Madrid welcome Barcelona at home to the Wanda Metropolitano.

Background information, news and team form

Atletico became champions of the top Spanish competition last season after seven years of domination by Real and Barcelona. Atletico Madrid would love to repeat that success this season, but Diego Simeone's team is not facing an easy task at all. However, Atletico has started well in their quest to defend their championship. In their opening six league games, Atletico has not lost and managed to win 4 times. For example, in the first game of the season, Atletico managed to beat Celta Vigo 1:2 on their home ground, with Angel Correa scoring twice. The shock came in the last league match when Atletico went on the road against the last team in the table, who had lost all their matches so far, Alaves, and Aleti did not take a single point from the Basque Country after losing 1-0. Fortunately, Atletico repaired their reputation at least on the international stage, as they managed to turn the tide in their match with Ac Milan on Tuesday to a 1-2 draw after goals from Griezmann in the 84th minute and a subsequent Luis Suarez penalty in the 90+7th minute.In the previous paragraph, I criticized Atletico Madrid for one failed game against the last team in La Liga, but what would Barcelona give for a start like Atletico's to the new season. Barcelona may be in 6th place in La Liga, but their results are inconsistent, with Ronald Koeman's team unable to beat, for example, Granada at home or score a goal at Cadiz Stadium. The absence of Lionel Messi is still visible and the team lacks a game idea. This problem is most evident in the Champions League matches. When in two matches Barcelona failed to score a goal, but more importantly, they did not record a single shot on target! The media is increasingly saying that Ronald Koeman's departure is a done deal and a replacement is already being sought. Among the top favourites to replace the Dutch, Barcelona manager are Xavi or Roberto Martinez. 

 

 

Betdoin's view of the match 

Atletico, as the defending champions, enter this match as the odds-on favourite at 1.94. A draw is available at odds of 3.46 and an away win is available at odds of 4.26. The goal line for this match has been set by the bookmakers at over 2.25. Our clever Betodin algorithm sees the value for this match mainly in the under bets. The yellow card bet doesn't look good as the referee Munuera will be whistling, having only handed out 10 yellow cards in three La Liga duels. Another interesting option could be a bet on over corner kicks.

 

 

Absentees and estimated line-ups

Kieran Trippier had to be substituted in Tuesday's game against Ac Milan, making his start very uncertain. Otherwise, however, Diego Simeone has a full squad at his disposal. Barcelona has quite a large squad and will still be missing Sergio Aguero, Ousmane Dembele, Martin Braithwaite and Alejandro Balde. The start of Barcelona's rising hope Pedri is also uncertain due to muscle problems. 

Atletico Madrid - estimated line-up:

Oblak - Llorente, Savic, Felipe, Lodi - Koke, Kondogbia, De Paul, Carrasco - Suarez, Felix

Barcelona - estimated line-up:

Ter Stegen - Dest, Pique, Araujo, Alba - Frankie de Jong, Busquets, Roberto - Memphis, Luuk de Jong, Coutinho
