Blaugrana to Extend Unbeaten Run?

Atletico Madrid have had a rough time of late. After losing to Getafe in La Liga to lose ground in the title race, Diego Simeone’s men were beaten on penalties by fierce rivals Real Madrid in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League in midweek.

Barcelona’s league game last weekend was postponed, but Blaugrana remain top of La Liga on goal difference. Hansi Flick’s boys are in red-hot form, unbeaten in all competitions since losing to Atleti in December’s reverse league fixture.

Colchoneros’ league form has been up and down of late. They have won just three of their previous eight in La Liga, losing twice along the way. Before the indifferent patch of form, Atleti won eight in a row in the league.

Barcelona have won every fixture in La Liga since kicking off 2025 with a draw at Getafe. Flick’s men mean business domestically this season, and Barca are also through to the last eight of the Champions League.

Recent Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona Head-to-Head Results

Barcelona have not lost since a 2-1 reverse to Atleti in the league meeting at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in December. Alexander Sorloth scored the winner in second-half stoppage time.

The pair played out an eight-goal thriller in the Copa del Rey in February. The first leg of the semi-final finished in a 4-4 draw in Catalonia, with the second match set to take place in the Spanish capital at the start of next month.  

Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona Betting Tips & Predictions

This is a huge title six-pointer in Madrid. Atleti will still be licking their wounds from Wednesday’s derby defeat, while Barca look to extend their unbeaten run.

This is likely to be another close encounter between two of Spain’s finest, but we fancy Barcelona to nick it (2.24). Atleti should find the net on their own patch, so the away win and both teams to looks good at 3.60.
