Analysis of the match between Club Brugge KV and Atlético Madrid
Recently, Atletico Madrid has been showing impressive form in cup competitions. They have lost only 1 of their last 5 matches, drawing 1 and winning 3. The most notable result was their 4-0 demolition of Barcelona at home in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals.
With their current momentum, the Spanish capital club has good reason to be confident heading to Club Brugge’s stadium. Atletico also performs very well away from home in cup competitions, remaining unbeaten in their last 5 away matches, with 4 victories, including a dominant 5-0 win over Betis in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals.
On the other hand, Club Brugge’s record is less impressive. They have won 3, drawn 1, and lost 3 of their last 7 cup matches, with their two most recent Champions League wins coming against lower-ranked opponents.
Compared to the teams previously defeated by Club Brugge, Atletico Madrid is a completely different proposition. Diego Simeone’s side has over a decade of European experience and boasts stars like Julian Alvarez, Antoine Griezmann, and Jan Oblak.
Therefore, Atletico winning in Belgium would not come as a surprise. However, this trip will not be easy, and it is likely that Simeone’s men will win by only a narrow 1-goal margin.
