Prediction: Barcelona 2-1 Atlético Madrid

Barcelona has hit form at the right time with Griezmann and Messi flourishing in the recent weeks with match-winning performances.

Atlético has slipped up at crucial times with losses to Sevilla and draws against Betis. A loss against Athletic Club recently was another stumble.

In recent weeks, they have faltered as a unit and hence we believe Barcelona edge this one as favourites and have the advantage.

Simeone’s men have known to pull out masterly acts and tomorrow could be another one of those.

Players to watch out for: Messi, Griezmann, Suárez, Llorente, Lemar.
