The result of the match of Barcelona against Atletico Madrid will be a surprise to some people but for me I expect Barcelona to lose or end the game draw, I have been saying that Barcelona will find it difficult to defeat Atletico Madrid because Atletico Madrid is in good shape this season, Atletico Madrid have played about 12 games now and they never lose any match which shows that they can play well against any opponent, Barcelona played well in the match but Atletico Madrid score goal to get the 3 points.
So, judging base on previous recent performance, Atletico madrid might just win this one to extend their lead. Not sure of where Barcelona are currently getting it wrong, but I feel they might still fail to get it right tomorrow. I don't know much about A.madrid's playing style this season, but I think Barce might dominate the game, but Atletico madrid will take the points that matters most. Though, the result can go the other way, because the odds I just saw seems to be favouring Barcelona.
The quoted text above was made by me before the game. I wasn't surprised at all when I saw the results because I actually forgot to watch the match live. I checked the stats, and just like I said, Barce will dominate, but Atletico madrid will be taking all 3 points. And interesting enough, the winning goal came late, which shows that they where there for just that 3 points. In football, most managers would say that "playing better would win games", but that isn't true most times. The main idea for some clubs is to win games, which doesn't matter how it's done(wether neatly or roughly).
And as it stands Atletico madrid are currently seated at the top with a game in hand. We saw their participation in the last transfer window, which means they have enough squad to compete against the two giants that're currently asleep. And there are heavy rumors of other players that they are currently linked with, which shows that they are really taking this business of winning the title very serious.
