Atletico vs Barcelona: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, h2h, odds today

The first leg was not short on action, finishing 4-4. Atletico were quick out of the gates, racing to a two-goal lead before conceding four unanswered, the visitors ultimately equalising through Alexander Sorloth in the 93rd minute.

The first leg was held in late February, but that is not their most recent meeting. The pair locked horns in an equally free-scoring match in March. That contest ended 4-2 in favour of Barcelona, decided by a pair of injury-time goals courtesy of Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres.

Despite the all-action first leg, it is honours even heading into the second. Atletico will hope the home advantage will be enough to help them edge their rivals.

Former Chelsea man and Cobham academy graduate Conor Gallagher has been a fixture in Diego Simeone’s starting lineups for much of this season but has been dropped in recent matches, starting just one of Atletico’s last six La Liga matches. He has appeared in each of Atletico’s six Copa del Rey matches, though, starting four times and bagging two assists. He played the first hour of the first leg against Barcelona.

The winner of this tie will face Real Madrid in the final, after a thrilling 4-4 draw in their own second leg tie was enough to edge past Real Sociedad.

Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona is scheduled for an 8:30pm BST kick-off tonight, Wednesday, April 2, 2025.

The match will take place at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid.
