Atletico Madrid has looked pretty much the same now for twelve or thirteen years. That's how long Diego "Cholo" Simeone has coached the team, and he's created a squad that gives everything year after year, a squad where satiety never sets in, despite the successes. Simeone's team has always been hard-working, with a generally strong defensive frame. Last season, however, they didn't look as stable at the back as they usually do, but this season they have started with few goals conceded and we won't be surprised if Simeone gets things sorted out that have been his hallmark. On Sunday evening, Atletico Madrid will face Real Madrid, which signed Kylian Mbappe ahead of this season. Mbappe has scored five goals in seven league games so far, but there is still some work to do to optimize the offense fully. Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Rodrygo all prefer to play on the left wing, and it has been noticed that all the players gravitate there and that a lot of play happens just out there. By the way, Mbappe is injured for this match, since he picked up a thigh injury this week. He is expected to be out until mid-October. Sad for everyone who was looking forward to seeing him in the Madrid derby. Real are also missing Brahim Díaz, Dani Ceballos, David Alaba and Eduardo Camavinga. There are many important players on the injury list, but luckily you have a lot of width. Atletico, in turn, is without Rodrigo De Paul and Pablo Barrios. I don't see a lot of fun in this match which will be very tight, a close combat with under 2.5 probably. Barcelona lost few hours ago, so I don't expect teams to push hard. Everyone would be happy with a draw here so I will go with +0.5 AH on home team.

马德里竞技在过去的12、13年里几乎没有什么变化。这就是迭戈·西蒙尼执教球队的时间，他创造了一支年复一年全力以赴的球队，一支尽管取得了成功，但永远不会感到满足的球队。西蒙尼的球队一直都很努力，防守体系也很强。然而上个赛季，他们的后防线看起来并不像他们平时那样稳定，但是本赛季他们几乎没有失球，如果西蒙尼能像他的标志那样解决问题，我们也不会感到惊讶。周日晚上，马德里竞技将对阵在本赛季前签下姆巴佩的皇家马德里。到目前为止，姆巴佩已经在7场联赛中打进5球，但要充分优化进攻，还有一些工作要做。姆巴佩、小维尼修斯和罗德里戈都喜欢踢左翼，我们注意到，所有的球员都被吸引到左翼，很多比赛就发生在那里。顺便说一下，姆巴佩在这场比赛中受伤了，因为他本周大腿受伤了。预计他要到10月中旬才能复出。对于那些期待在马德里德比中看到他的人来说，这是很难过的。皇马也失去了卜拉希姆Díaz，达尼·塞巴略斯，大卫·阿拉巴和爱德华多·卡马文加。伤兵名单上有很多重要的球员，但幸运的是你有很大的宽度。而马竞则没有了德保罗和巴里奥斯。我看不出这场比赛有什么好玩的，这场比赛将会非常激烈，可能是一场低于2.5的近距离战斗。巴塞罗那几个小时前输了球，所以我不指望球队会很努力。每个人都会对平局感到高兴，所以我会给主队+0.5 AH。
