The Atleti punctured in front of the Celtic of Vigo and increase the reasons to think that LaLiga Santander, after 22 days, is far to be sentenced

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Until the day 21, the Athletic of Madrid was an intractable team, with ten points of advantage on his perseguidores in the classification, the FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, but with the tie in Wanda Metropolitan in front of the Celtic of Vigo, the panorama changes totally and invites to think that will not be the first neither only time that the Atleti goes to 'puncture' in the weeks to come.

The team of the 'Cholo' Simeone has been a revolution in this season, at least in LaLiga and his exert had projected above the Barça and Madrid, big candidates to lead the domestic championship from the beginning. However, the 'colchoneros' have achieved to chain some results more than positive that have strengthened him in the highest of the table, with 16 victories, three ties (two in the beginning of the course and one in front of the Celtic) and an only defeat, in the derbi Madrilenian.

To the Atleti, also, is missing him a party for contesting, but with the result of the crash in front of the ones of Coudet, the situation changes completely. It is necessary to remember that the rojiblancos are not a team that historically have stood out by the regularity in League and that, in fact, in the last campaigns always has had a period in which it has cost him horrors achieve positive results. In the past course, before the arrival of the pandemia, the ones of Simeone were in the sixth position of the table, for example.

The Madrilenian prefer, without place to doubts, the eliminatory direct, reason by which have achieved two finals of Champions League in the last six years and other so many in the Europe League. To the Athletic costs him, definitively, keep regulate by so many parties, by what the direct competitions are used to to be simpler for them. This is one of the reasons by which, to this point, can trust that LaLiga will follow opened and there are options for the three 'big' of Spain.

The big moment of the Barça... And surprise of the Madrid?

In addition to that the Atleti is not a team accustomed to hold the pressure, it is necessary to take in account that the FC Barcelona could give a surprise in LaLiga if it continues with the performance that has showed in 2021, as long as the 'colchoneros' also leave points on the way. The Barça already has showed that goes to litigate by all the titles and that will keep firm to snatch him the leadership to the ones of Simeone.

Neither it is necessary to stand out that the Real Madrid, as it did it the past season, of a surprise of a moment to another. The merengues, after it restarted the football, achieved to keep in his best form and achieved to raise his League number 34. Of course, his situation is very distinct to the one of the past year and, taking in account the last parties, is little likely that achieve to repeat his big feat of the past.
