💭 Prediction

Our assessment is that Barcelona will most probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.

At the same time, Atlético Madrid could well struggle to get shooting opportunities although we do reckon that they could well end up managing to get on the scoresheet, too.

We reckon that it will be a comfortable 3-1 winning score for Barcelona come full-time.
