If this isn’t the case, Barcelona will be under even more pressure on Sunday when it plays Atletico Madrid to end its goal drought and avoid a slump at the end of the season.

The team has not scored in three games after losing 4-0 to Madrid in the Copa del Rey and drawing 0-0 with Girona and Getafe, two teams in the lower league.

The other Madrid team had a tough season, falling behind the pack in Legends Association and losing the connection title quickly. In any case, Atletico Madrid has been Spain’s most boisterous team in 2023. With a dominating six-game series and 13-game unbeaten streak, it travels to Barcelona.
Atletico’s ongoing run was finished on January 8 when Barcelona crushed Atletico 1-0 in the capital. Before signing a loan deal with Chelsea, that was Joo Félix’s final game for Atletico. Antoine Griezmann has been playing the same way he did during his most fundamental season at Atletico preceding consuming 2019-21 at Barcelona, where he won’t at any point be a piece of the gathering. Portugal’s forward had already left by that point.
The France forward currently leads both his team and the league with 11 goals and 8 assists. Griezmann scored twice in the most recent match, helping his team defeat Almeria 2-1. There are two points that separate Atletico Madrid and Atletico. It would be a great way to end the season, even though it won’t win any more titles if it beats its crosstown rival.
