Defending La Liga champions Real Madrid will face city rivals on Sunday night in the Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid match to try to stay up with Barcelona, who are currently leading the league by a significant margin. Also, Atletico is undefeated through their first six games, so it could be a fascinating matchup.
Real Madrid remains unbeaten this season. At the beginning of the season, the club dropped points twice, drawing with teams that were not among the strongest. However, that was quite some time ago. Ancelotti’s team has achieved a five-match winning streak since then.
Nevertheless, Real Madrid has not consistently triumphed with overwhelming superiority. He has not experienced numerous straightforward victories. Challenges frequently emerge – 3:2 against Alaves, 3:1 versus Stuttgart. Even from Espanyol, Madrid missed one goal – 4:1. Injuries and transfers undoubtedly have an effect. During the summer, the club acquired Kylian Mbappe – a standout forward known for his aversion to defensive duties. Ancelotti’s team must reconstruct their approach to the game. Unfortunately, the Frenchman is currently injured and will miss this match.
Atletico have a comparable approach to the season, with just a few draws and the rest being victories. Simeone’s team also dropped points against less formidable opponents, finishing 2:2 with Villarreal, 0:0 with Espanyol, and 1:1 with Rayo Vallecano. The club secured victories against Girona (3:0), Athletic (1:0), and Valencia (3:0). The style of Atletico’s football has evolved; they are no longer solely a defensive team. In attack, they play more actively, although this sometimes leads to problems for them. Consequently, the team secured impressive victories against Leipzig in the Champions League (2:1) and in La Liga against Celta last weekend (1:0).
Atletico currently holds the third position in the standings, accumulating a total of 15 points. They are trailing Real Madrid by two points. Los Blancos find themselves four points behind the leaders, Barcelona, who have yet to experience any setbacks this season. Both teams are in need of points, as the team that loses will find themselves trailing even further behind the leaders.
