Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Preview
Diego Simeone’s men failed to rattle the net in every match this term except for a shocking 0-0 draw against Espanyol, but it’s fair to say that luck wasn’t on their side. Real, they’ve been in destructive form in their first seven league matches, winning five and drawing two. They’ve been free-scoring too, with 16 goals in seven games and just five conceded. Like Real, Atletico too are yet to lose this season. They have won four of their games and drew the other three. The matchups between the two Madrid rivals in recent years have been peppered with goals, with both teams registering on the scoresheet in seven of these fixtures.
Jan Oblak is Atletico’s talisman ahead of their showdown against Real Madrid. His strong physical presence and ability to monitor the backline is an asset for Atletico. Vini is a star in his own right. Since joining Los Blancos he has won three LaLiga’s and two UEFA Champions League titles.
