On Tuesday, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid will lock horns in a highly-anticipated Champions League clash. There have been exciting Madrid derbies in two of the last three finals, but this encounter will occur in the semi-final.
Simeone’s men travel to the Bernabeu first before welcoming Zidane’s side at the Vicente Calderon Stadium for the very last time – this time is definitely the last. Here’s a look at their head-to-head record.
In La Liga
Total matches: 160
Real Madrid wins: 86
Atletico wins: 39
Real Madrid goals: 285
Atletico goals: 214
In the Spanish Primera Division, Atletico’s recent has been impressive. In their last 8 meetings with Real Madrid, stretching back to 2013, Simeone’s crew have won four times. This shows that Los Rojiblancos have learned how to beat their rivals in La Liga, but the same can’t be said in Europe.
In European competitions
Total matches: 7
Real Madrid wins: 4
Atletico wins: 1
Real Madrid goals: 10
Atletico goals: 5
Those two finals weigh heavily on Atletico’s mind. Real Madrid have bossed their neighbors on the European stage, losing 1-0 only once in 1958/59 – Los Blancos still progressed after winning the replay 2-1.
Of course, Tuesday will be a new slate. Both clubs will be gunning for a win, with a spot in the final at stake.
