Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona Preview

Following a 4-4 draw in the first leg, Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid welcome Barcelona to the Wanda Metropolitano in the second leg of the Copa del Rey Semi Finals. 

Form

Atletico have been solid this season but head into this competition on a poor run of form with two wins in their last seven games in all competitions. 

They have been been porous in defence, conceding in seven of their last ten games in all competitions with both teams finding the back of the net in seven of those ten games including a 1-1 draw to Espanyol in their last league match. 

Atletico Madrid have won seven of their last ten home games in all competitions and are undefeated in five Copa del Rey games this season. They have scored three or more goals in four of their five Copa del Rey matches. 

Barcelona are in impeccable form coming into this fixture, unbeaten in their last 20 games in all competitions. 

They have won nine of their last ten games in all competitions including six consecutive wins within that time. Hansi Flick's side have been absolutely devastating in attack, scoring two or more goals in seven of their last eight games in all competitions.

Seven of their last ten games have seen Over 2.5 goals.

Barcelona are unbeaten in the Copa del Rey this season with all four of their fixtures in this competition this season seeing Over 3.5 goals while they have scored three or more goals in all four matches. 

Verdict

The last four meetings between both sides have been high scoring with Over 2.5 goals featuring including the 4-4 draw in the first leg. With Diego Simeone's side struggling in defense, I'll be backing Barcelona Over 1.5 Team Goals.
