Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Prediction LaLiga
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Prediction and Betting Tips for Saturday’s blockbuster clash at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano. Real Madrid arrive in blistering form, unbeaten in seven matches this season. Sitting atop the table with 18 points from six games, Los Blancos are gunning for a seventh straight win. Atletico Madrid, by contrast, are still finding their rhythm, sitting ninth with nine points. This fixture offers plenty of drama, and here you’ll discover LaLiga Predictions from XpertStats tipsters ahead of the Madrid derby.
- Real Madrid have won all six of their opening La Liga matches in the 2025-26 season.
- Atletico Madrid have conceded seven goals in six league games this season.
- Mbappe has scored nine goals in seven appearances this season for Real Madrid.
- The last three Madrid derbies in La Liga ended in 1-1 draws.
Atletico have shown flashes of fight this season, notably their 3-2 comeback win against Rayo Vallecano midweek. Diego Simeone’s side has battled through a rocky start: two wins, three draws, and a loss, conceding seven goals in six matches. Defensive frailties will be a worry against a Real Madrid attack brimming with confidence. Simeone’s men will lean heavily on Julian Alvarez, who already has four league goals, and Conor Gallagher for energy in midfield. Still, can they withstand the pressure from Madrid’s front line?
Real Madrid’s run under Xabi Alonso has been nearly flawless. Six wins from six in La Liga, plus a Champions League opener victory, have seen them play with conviction and ruthlessness. Kylian Mbappe has been sensational, scoring nine goals in seven appearances, with Vinicius Jr. and Franco Mastantuono also in top form. Their attacking prowess is matched by defensive solidity, only two clean-sheet breaks this season. Even so, past Madrid derbies hint at tighter games, so this may not be an easy ride.
The head-to-head history adds spice to this fixture. Atletico are unbeaten in their last five league games against Real Madrid a record stretching back to September 2022. Yet Real Madrid have a far superior historical record overall and haven’t lost an opening seven-game streak like this in decades. That contrast makes this clash unpredictable. Both sides will fight for bragging rights, but the form book suggests a tilt in favour of Los Blancos.
From a betting perspective, Real Madrid look primed to extend their perfect start to the season. Atletico will defend stubbornly, but Madrid’s firepower is hard to ignore. This encounter could well be decided by moments of brilliance rather than a grinding stalemate. Our tip: keep an eye on the scoreline staying competitive but with Real Madrid edging it. That’s not just a prediction it’s a story in the making. Expect drama, passion, and a classic Madrid derby.

Real Madrid’s form this season speaks volumes. They’ve won all six of their opening La Liga games and lead the table with 18 points. Kylian Mbappe has been in extraordinary form, scoring nine goals in seven appearances. Vinicius Jr. and Franco Mastantuono add further attacking threat, while the team’s defence remains resolute with just 0.67 goals conceded per game. Atletico Madrid, meanwhile, have struggled defensively, letting in seven goals in six matches and losing their Champions League opener. Simeone’s side have shown grit, but Real’s consistency and quality in attack give them the edge. Atletico’s home advantage matters, but history shows Los Blancos can deliver under pressure, they’ve won twice away at Atletico since 2016, despite recent draws. The combination of superior form, clinical finishing, and depth makes a Real Madrid victory the most likely outcome.
