Atlético de Madrid and Barcelona meet this Sunday, in a duel in style between two full teams, still savoring the ecstasy of their qualification for the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
The red and white and blue and white team are pursuing a victory that will allow the former to continue maintaining their chances of fighting to defend the title and the latter not to see their place in the top European competition next season in jeopardy.
Atlético seems to be at a certain disadvantage, due to the accumulated wear and tear, both physically and emotionally, from playing in extra time and defining their pass against Inter in the penalty shootout.
For its part, Barcelona is clinging to good feelings during its duel with Naples. Also to the appearance of two young homegrown players who have earned the status of indispensable, such as Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsí.
The Blaugranas intend to attack the Colchonero fiefdom, where Simeone’s team has been intractable throughout the season and where the fans will once again be key, as they were last Wednesday in European competition.
The match between Atlético de Madrid and Barcelona, ??corresponding to the twenty-ninth matchday of LaLiga EA Sports, will be played this Sunday, March 17, at 9:00 p.m. The meeting can be seen on television on DAZN and can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
