Atletico to suffer another setback

It was a heartbreaking midweek for Atletico Madrid as they crashed out of the Champions League on penalties at the hands of Real Madrid and their title bid could be about to suffer a blow with Barcelona fancied to win their top-of-the-table clash on Sunday.

Barcelona are unbeaten in their last six away games in the Primera Liga and have lost just one of their last nine on the road. They look like a good bet to get the win against a tired Atletico outfit.

Barcelona are two places and one point above Atletico Madrid in the table and both teams are in the title race. The leaders have won 18 of their 26 games this season, while Atletico have 16 wins so far from 27 games.

Barcelona’s 4-0 victory over ten-man Sociedad two weeks ago was their sixth consecutive Primera Liga win and their last league outing following the postponement of last weekend’s fixture. They dominated the game with 76.4% possession and didn’t allow Sociedad a single shot on target. Barcelona have won 16 of the 20 games in which they’ve scored first this season (80%).

Barcelona are in good form on the road, having gone six away trips without losing in the league. They have won their last two games away from home and have tasted defeat just once in their last nine Primera Liga outings.

Barcelona will be confident of scoring, having found the back of the net in 18 of their last 20 league games. They have averaged three goals a game in their four Primera Liga matches against other top five teams this season.

Barcelona have been solid defensively, keeping four shutouts in their last five Primera Liga games and going three successive games without conceding, their longest run of the season.

A 2-0 win for Barcelona looks like the best correct-score option. At least one of the teams did not score in seven of the last nine Primera Liga meetings between these sides, so it could be a quiet night for the hosts in front of goal.
