📈 Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid Form & Stats
Atletico come into this encounter unbeaten in their last five, winning four and drawing one. It’s been a pretty standard season for Atletico, they sit 4th in the league after picking up 38 points from 19 games, but they’re 11 points behind table toppers Barcelona.
Atletico have performed well in the Champions League, picking 12 points from their six games and scoring a whopping 15 goals.
The underlying data suggests Atletico have been somewhat overperforming in La Liga, although this has barely altered their expected league position. Atletico have managed key moments at both ends of the box effectively, showing ruthlessness in front of goal by scoring 3.2 more goals than expected, while conceding 5.8 less goals than expected.
Real Madrid’s form has picked up after a patchy period in November and early December, they’ve now won four games on the trot. Despite starting the season in emphatic fashion, Real Madrid now find themselves four points below Barcelona, the pressure is on to eradicate and overturn the deficit.
Real Madrid have been fairly solid in the Champions League, picking up 12 points from six games, just like their Madrid rivals, they’ve already secured qualification to the knockout rounds of the competition.
The underlying data suggests Real Madrid are unfortunate to be 2nd in the league, which is testament to Barcelona’s big overperformance on expected goals scored.
