La Liga
Atletico Madrid certainly remembers well the last derby between the two teams at this stadium, when the hosts completely outplayed and defeated their city rivals 5:2. Since the start of the season, Atletico has already suffered one loss in La Liga, which came during their visit to Athletic Bilbao. However, they quickly recovered from it, following up with two 3:0 victories against Real Sociedad away and 4:0 at home against Osasuna. Atletico is unbeaten in their last five home matches against Real in all competitions, winning four of them.
Real Madrid intends to dethrone Barcelona this season, but so far this has not happened and they need further improvement to do so. On Tuesday, they nearly stumbled during their visit to Elche, despite taking a 2:0 lead. They allowed an equalizer and had to wait until the last minute to secure a 3:2 victory. Prior to that, they lost as guests to Betis 0:1. A clean sheet in just seven matches this season also does not bode well for the team.
Prediction: both teams to score, double chance 1XRecently, these visits to the "Wanda Metropolitano" have been quite difficult for Real. The question is whether Jose Mourinho knows how to change that now. At this stage, however, Real remains unconvincing as guests, at least since the start of this season. They also concede goals, which will likely happen at least once here again. Both teams have scored in 13 of the last 14 derbies between them, and both teams to score really seems to be the most logical outcome for the clash.
