tletico may rotate with no league stakes and focus on the Champions League, while Barcelona have full motivation and strong attacking form. With recent head-to-head dominance and better current conditions, Barcelona are clear favorites for the away win.

Match Odds Betting

Match with standings interest essentially only for the away team, with the particularity that the two clubs will face each other in the coming days in two-legged ties in the Champions League knockout stage.
Atletico are very different this season in style and players, Simeone is trying to build a new team, with mixed results so far. Perhaps their best match this season was the 4-0 in the cup against Barcelona. In this game there are absences for the home side, and there are also thoughts of rotation ahead of the Champions League since there is no real stakes in the standings. It would not surprise me if Atletico even “hide” from their opponent before the two crucial European meetings (the first on Wednesday at Camp Nou).
Barcelona have full motivation to maintain the gap at the top from Real. They also want to respond to their heavy cup defeat, especially ahead of the two matches with Atletico in the Champions League. They are in excellent attacking form, while they also have important returns in defense.
In recent years Barcelona have been winning away at the colchoneros, last season 2-4, the year before 0-3, and with the current circumstances they look clear favorites.
The price of the away win allows a play on the victory of the better team that also has the motivation.
