How good is Atletico Madrid's current form?
In the second part of our football predictions, it's all about the visitors from Madrid. Atletico still have every chance of winning the championship and are on 54 points after the 25th matchday in La Liga, just one point behind the Catalans. While Barca have been convincing offensively, the Rojiblancos' defensive performance has been more impressive. Their defensive formation allowed their opponents just 16 goals, the fewest in the entire Spanish championship. This first leg will therefore be anything but a walk in the park for Barcelona.
