Bet on Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid

Will Blaugrana Take a Lead to Madrid?

Hansi Flick’s Barcelona are in stunning form, unbeaten in 13 league and cup matches (11 wins, two draws). Since a 2-2 UEFA Champions League draw with Italian outfit Atalanta in January, Blaugrana have won five on the trot.

Barcelona are the record Copa del Rey winners, and the Catalonian giants are gunning for a 32^nd Spanish Cup this season. They have been superb in the competition so far, seeing off Barbastro, Real Betis, and Valencia, scoring 14 goals.

Atleti are also in fine fettle, losing just one game across all competitions since October. After the league loss to Leganes, the Madrid club have responded with five wins and three draws from eight.

Diego Simeone’s men picked up four consecutive away wins in the Copa del Rey before thumping Getafe 5-0 at the Metropolitano earlier in the month. Rojiblancos have scored 15 goals in five cup fixtures.

Recent Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid Head-to-Head Results

Barcelona have not lost since the 2-1 reverse to Atletico Madrid in La Liga in December. The game was heading for a 1-1 draw, but Alexander Sorloth had other ideas, netting the winner in stoppage time.

Before December’s loss, Barca had won five in a row against Colchoneros. They last met in the Copa del Rey in the 2016-17 season, with Barca winning the semi-final 3-2 on aggregate.
