Atletico Madrid continue their chase for Champions League qualification this weekend, as they look to increase their advantage over Athletic Bilbao to nine points. Meanwhile, Celta Vigo will be chasing a win that could maintain their top-flight status.
It has been a mixed season for Atletico Madrid, but their campaign could still end with Champions League qualification. The Spanish side currently sit fourth in the standings, and they come into this round in solid form after winning four of their last five. That has enabled them to open up a six-point advantage over Bilbao in the final spot in the top four places.
It also hasn’t been the easiest season for Celta Vigo this term, despite increased hopes following the arrival of Rafael Benitez last summer. They come into this round sitting 15th in the standings, but they will likely need one more victory to ensure their safety in the top division of Spain.
Celta’s record in Madrid is very hard to overlook when assessing the most likely outcome this weekend, as they have won just once in 28 visits to the Spanish capital. Their only success was a 3-0 win against Getafe in October 2021, but they have lost on 18 previous occasions. But, they come into this round after winning two of their last three.
Atletico’s form has been inconsistent throughout the season, but they have remained solid in home matches. At the Civitas Metropolitano, they have won 15 of their 17 matches, which is their highest-ever tally of home victories in a single league campaign in their La Liga history.
Atletico’s record against Celta is incredibly impressive, as they have avoided defeat in each of the last ten matches. Over that period, they have recorded seven wins. Meanwhile, Celta have failed to win away from home against Atletico since landing a 3-2 success in June 2007.
The trends certainly point toward the most likely angle of being a home win this weekend. Atletico have bossed their previous encounters against Celta, and their dominant home form this term is incredibly challenging to overlook on Sunday. We could see Atletico recording a 3-0 home success in Madrid.
