The thing is that while everyone is guessing and arguing who will win the title this season - Barcelona or Real Madrid - it is quite likely that the title will be won by Atletico Madrid, which is mentioned much less often, despite the fact that they are in great form now and they are sure to use any mistake of Real and Barcelona to climb to the first line. I think it would be at least beautiful if they took the top spot.
Don't be surprised that people are mostly picking between Barcelona and Real Madrid to win the league because they have been the most consistent over the years, when it comes to the league titles. Atletico Madrid always fall off along the line. We have seen that happen over the years and it has kept on repeating years after years. So we ain't expecting anything different from them this time. Atletico Madrid will not win the league believe me. Not when Real Madrid and Barcelona are this close to them. Atletico Madrid would have had the chance of winning if either Barcelona, Madrid or both are struggling presently. But they are not, so since they ain't struggling but in good forms, Atletico Madrid will always be the odd Man in their midst. They don't have this winning mentality that Barcelona and Real Madrid players have developed over the years.
When that type of drop happens, it happens usually earlier than March, we are not that used to seeing Atletico Madrid to be still battling for the top spot at March so this is a new thing and we are not used to it at all. If we can end up with something that could benefit Simeone, that would be some injuries to important players in other two team, which would give Atletico a chance to get a title.
However, without injuries, I still see either Barcelona or Real Madrid to have a higher chance. Barcelona makes sense, because they are ahead, but even Real Madrid has a higher chance for me, because while they are behind, the gap isn't huge, there is enough to cover that difference in a single game so Real could pass Atletico.
