Los Colchoneros lost to Real Madrid in the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup in the recent Madrid derby. The irreconcilable rivals delighted the audience with a brilliant and spectacular game. The main time of the match ended with the score 3:3, and in extra time Carlo Ancelotti’s team scored two goals. As a result, Real Madrid (5-3 DV) reached the final.
Atlético’s coach, Diego Simeone, did not change his principles and played against Real Madrid with an offensive style that the fans really like. In fact, in the matches in which the Argentine specialist’s players participate, many goals are scored and it is difficult to predict the winner until the last minutes. The team simply lacks stability.
In the current draw of the First League, after 19 rounds, the “colchoneros” occupy only fifth place. Atlético is now 11 points behind Girona, which occupies first place in the standings, but has one game less. In addition, the team reached the round of 16 of the Champions League and participates in the Copa del Rey.
Let’s look at the momentous achievement that Antoine Griezmann achieved. The Frenchman scored a goal in the match against Real Madrid in the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup. Thanks to this goal, the forward took first place on the list of Atlético’s all-time top scorers. He scored 174 goals.
There were rumors about Xavi’s resignation:
Unionistas-Barcelona. You can’t fire Javi!
Since the Colchoneros’ prospects of winning the current edition of the Spanish championship are very vague, perhaps the emphasis will be on the country’s Cup. It is unlikely that the coach will take a risk and make a rotation in the derby against Real Madrid. We should expect an alignment on the field as close as possible to the main team.
Real Madrid returned from Saudi Arabia with the Spanish Super Cup. In the final, the whites defeated Barcelona 4-1. The great hero of the match was Vinicius Júnior. The Brazilian scored a hat-trick and created a lot of problems for the rival defense.
It is worth noting that once again Vinicius demonstrated his complex character. During the match, the Brazilian came into conflict with the Barcelona players, almost causing a brawl. Carlo Ancelotti was forced to replace the leader to avoid problems.
The Italian coach’s team is doing well this season. They are second in the La Liga standings, one point behind Girona. It is important that Real have one less game. In the Champions League, the club completed the task in the group stage and advanced to the playoffs.
The white team’s top scorer this season is Jude Bellingham. The 20-year-old Englishman has 17 goals scored in all competitions. It is interesting how the appearance of Kylian Mbappé at the club, whose transfer many experts consider very likely, will affect his performance.
It is possible that the Spanish Cup becomes a priority tournament for the colchoneros. Diego Simeone will seek to take advantage of the home status and Real Madrid’s fatigue after the recent Super Cup final. Let’s consider a bet on Atlético’s passage to the quarterfinals at 2.03.
Prediction and bets for the round of 16 of the Spanish Cup Atlético Madrid – Real Madrid January 18, 2024
The victory in the Spanish Super Cup took away a lot of strength and emotion from Real Madrid, so it will be difficult for the whites to recover quickly. In turn, the “mattress boys” had time to rest and prepare thoroughly for the derby. This is the most important factor in favor of the final victory of Diego Simeone’s team. In this match we will choose to bet on Atlético reaching the quarterfinals.
Tender: Atlético’s passage to the quarterfinals in 2.03.
