Prediction for Atletico Madrid – Barcelona
The semi-final leg of the King’s Cup between Atco in Madrid and Barcelona, a game that is becoming a classic in all competitions.
Both will face a match after having offered a very bad image before Alavés and Betis, controversial aside neither of them deserved to win.
I go with the ha of Atco de Madrid because I see several ingredients that makes me think that Atco will not lose the game.
The first and fundamental for me is the absence of Busquet, has been seen in the games against Real and Betis, difficulties to get the ball from behind. Both teams pressed the start, but certainly much less than the Cholo. Something that made in the last duels of CL that faced. Apart from this low, Iniesta will probably not be of the game, or enter without just training.
Another reason is the need, the Atco, with the league almost lost, needs to cling to this competition to reach a final (we do not know how he rages in Champions)
As for data, the Atco this season in his field has played 15 games, with 11 victories and only two defeats (Real Madrid and Las Palmas in the cup when it was already classified).
A striking fact is that since falling against Madrid in league, Cholo’s make a game more similar to last season, together behind and with a less cheerful but more solvent football. In fact, seven games after the derby have only conceded a goal in the two knockout rounds, with the qualifiers on track.
Del Barca I already said that it is fd the low of Busquet, besides seeing the results away from home since November that is when I finish the initial phase of Champions, in eight games played only I won 3 (Eibar, Real in cup, Osasuna), no Being able to win neither in Villarreal nor in San Sebastiano in league.
This season against top teams has not made big matches, suffered in Valencia, Sevilla, San Sebastin, Bilbao …
It is true that in the last 6 clashes in the Calderon the Barca won 3. But two of them were league and one the return of the cup. The two confrontations of Champions were for the Madridians.
El Barca has Messi and that is enough to consider him a winner in any field, but right now I do not see so clearly that I won this game more than half the time. There I see the value and that’s why we go for it
Luck!
