Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid Prediction & Betting Tips - Super Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in Football Predictions
Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid will renew their Madrid rivalry in Saudi Arabia when they face off in the Spanish Super Cup title winning match on Sunday at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah. Real Madrid toppled Valencia 3-1 as Atletico beat Barcelona 3-2 to set up the final. This match pits the second placed side in La Liga – Real, against third placed Atletico with five points separating them back home. La Liga ambitions will take a back seat here but we are sure to get the taste of the Madrid rivalry. Real head to the game on 15 matches unbeaten, with 10 wins and nine clean sheets therein. They have scored three goals in each of their last two matches and conceded just once in the last four matches. Away from home they are unbeaten in the last eight matches, winning six, while they have scored 10 goals and conceded three in their last five away matches. They have not conceded more than a goal in a game in their last 11 away matches, keeping six clean sheets in the process. Real Madrid have three straight wins in Super Cup matches and have lost just one in the last six. They have scored two or more goals in 10 of 13 Super Cup matches. They lost to Atletico in the Super Cup in 2014’ their 1-0 fall then, was only the second time they have failed to score in the competition. These two sides met earlier in the season and it ended in a 0-0 draw. Four of their last seven meetings have ended in draws, three goalless.
One of the most memorable games between these two sides is the preseason meeting at the International Champions Cup, which ended 7-3 in favor of Atletico. It not be remembered for the best reasons though, as it was an ill-tempered game. We don’t expect the same to happen here, especially with the volatile Diego Costa out injured. Atletico will be buoyed by their six-match unbeaten run, having won each of the last five matches. They took the lead, fell behind and recovered in the last 10 minutes to floor Barcelona before booking their place in this game. This was the first time they managed to score more than one goal in five Super Cup matches. Atletico have six wins, two losses and three clean sheets in their last 10 matches. They have scored two goals or more in the last five matches. They have a total of 11 goals in their last five matches, while they have conceded four. Their last three matches have each yielded over 2.5 goals. They have three wins and five draws in their last 10 away matches and scored more than one in just three of their last 10 away matches. Meanwhile, they have failed to score in three of the last 10 away matches. In their five Super Cup games, they have three draws and two wins, and they have failed to score in just one of the five.

Our Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
The Madrid rivalry will be served raw in Saudi Arabia this Sunday, with both teams taking to the match a good run of form. While both sides scored thrice in their matches before this, we expect a cautious approach from both, as has been the case in the season. The two played to a 0-0 draw in La Liga, and three of their last seven matches have also ended in 0-0 draws. Even as we expect a cautious approach, we highly doubt this will end goalless, going by their runs of form ahead of the game. They have both been scoring a lot, averaging two goals in their last five matches each. Real Madrid were fast off the blocks against Valencia, while Atletico had to go all out in the second half against Barcelona. We still expect that Atletico will chase this game but at the end of it, a draw seems the likeliest result at 90 minutes. The best bet therefore for this clash would be for Real to lead at half time, and draw at full time.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
