Atlético de Madrid is making good progress. Real Madrid and Barcelona are the two teams that have always been favorites in the fight to win the league title, but Atlético have not lost a game so far this season. Today (Saturday) when Real-Atlético will face each other in the Madrid derby, victory continues to be tilted towards the ‘little ones’ from Madrid. Even on the question of winning the title, Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane considers Diego Simeone’s team as his favorite.
Atlético top the La Liga points table, while Real is at number four. Atlético will be 9 points ahead of Los Blanco if they win the Madrid derby. Both teams have confirmed a knockout phase in the Champions League before facing the Estadio Alfredo de Stefano. Real Group, which competes in the European competition, has become the best of the last sixteen. Atlético, on the other hand, is second in the same group with Bayern Munich.
However, Simeone’s team topped everyone in La Liga. They are at the top with 26 points in 10 games. Although he is 1 point behind Real Sociedad, second, he has played less than two games. Real played more than one game, but are now 6 points behind.
So before the Madrid derby, Zidane put Atlético ahead when the question of the favorites came up. The Real manager had a question, is Atlético the favorite this season? The answer to the French legend is: ‘Yes, of course. They are showing it in the field. They are doing everything very well and fighting fiercely. They are always a competitive team. Now they are at the top (in the point table). ‘
Real, however, is not thinking about the title. “We want to show in each game what kind of team we are and without thinking about the title,” said Zidane. We want to win every game and fight.
