Eimer knows Barcelona have an excellent mix of veterans and young stars and have dominated the league along with Real Madrid. Robert Lewandowski (league-high 13 goals) will miss out on suspension, so Ferran Torres (two goals) is likely to start. The Blaugranes have allowed six goals in 15 matches, five fewer than any other team, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen has a league-high 11 clean sheets. They hold the ball for 65% of their matches and allow two shots on target per game. They beat Atletico 4-2 in the teams' last meeting.
But Eimer also has taken into account Atletico's recent run, as they have outscored their past four opponents 9-1. Three of those were Copa del Rey matches against inferior competition, but they should still gain confidence. Barca don't allow many goals, but five of the six they have conceded have come away from home. Atletico have allowed 48 shots on target, third-fewest in the league, and are 3-2-1 in the past six meetings with Barcelona. Alvaro Morata (six goals) and Antoine Griezmann (five) pace the attack.
Now, Eimer has taken an in-depth look at the Atletico Madrid vs. Barcelona matchup and locked in his picks. He is leaning Under on the total and has two confident best bets and his full breakdown of the match. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.Â
