Atletico Madrid hosted Barcelona in a La Liga Matchday 30 fixture, marking the fourth meeting between the teams this season. On Saturday, we got absolutely all our predictions right, although Los Colchoneros’ red card complicated things somewhat.
This time, Barcelona will be hosting, and the factors will be a little different, though some of our predictions will be similar.
On Saturday, Atletico started the match decently, even scoring the opening goal in the 39th minute. But Gonzalez’s red card changed everything, and Barcelona dominated completely in the second half.
To understand exactly how dominant they were, Atletico didn’t have a single shot in the second half and had just 17% possession over the 45 minutes.
Probable line-ups
Barcelona: Garcia, Cancelo, Cubarsi, Martin, Kounde, Pedri, Garcia, Rashford, Lopez, Yamal, Lewandowski
Atletico Madrid: Musso, Ruggeri, Normand, Hancko, Molina, Simeone, Llorente, Koke, Lookman, Alvarez, Griezmann
