Atletico Madrid, reeling from a Champions League penalty shootout loss to Real Madrid, face Barcelona in a crucial La Liga encounter. Despite a strong showing against their rivals, Atletico must quickly refocus as they chase a domestic double.

Atletico, third in La Liga, host league leaders Barcelona, who hold a game in hand. Recent form is mixed; Atletico lost to Getafe, while Barcelona progressed in the Champions League. Barcelona's away record is stellar, but Atletico boast a formidable home record.

The first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final ended 4-4, and Barcelona won 3-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano last season. Atletico will miss Correa through suspension, and key players are injury doubts. Barcelona, despite injuries, have a potent attack led by Lewandowski.

Barcelona's attacking prowess and strong away form pose a significant challenge. However, Atletico's home strength and desire for redemption could lead to a tightly contested match.

Prediction: A draw, with both teams showcasing their attacking capabilities.
