La Liga
Great start to the season for Barcelona, but it seems like it's already history. Nothing foreshadowed this decline or the fact that Barcelona would have only one victory in the last six rounds. Moreover, it was as a guest, and undoubtedly the top performances were in the last two home games of the team. Hardly anyone could have imagined that Barcelona would suffer two consecutive home defeats from underdogs like Las Palmas and Leganes. Barca also received unpleasant news, as it became clear that Jamal would not be available for the upcoming important match. Coach Hanzi Flick, on the other hand, is punished and will not be on the bench for the match.
Is the streak of 11 consecutive wins by Atletico coming to an end?At the same time, Atletico Madrid leveled with Barcelona at the top, and they have one game less. They didn't start the season particularly well, but their current form is excellent and has led to 11 consecutive wins in all competitions. However, Barcelona is a very uncomfortable opponent for Diego Simeone and company. "The mattress makers" have lost their last five games against this opponent, and their last away win against Barca in the league was in 2006.
Prediction: Both teams to scoreBarcelona has not conceded a goal in their last four meetings with Atletico. However, the current form of the teams definitely suggests that this could change. Atletico's winning streak may end here, but it wouldn't be a surprise if the guests score a goal, as well as if they concede one in this match.
