Big Data Predicts Who Will Win the Atlético - Real Madrid Derby in the Champions League

AI and Big Data have spoken and the Madrid classic in the Champions League has a favorite

Tomorrow's clash for Real Madrid will be one of the most important of the season, not only because it's the Champions League, but because of the opponent they face. Atlético de Madrid has the more than complicated mission of trying to overturn a Champions League match against the Madrid team. For this reason, all kinds of tools have been involved, including Big Data from artificial intelligence.

In this regard, the tool has opted for a higher probability of Atlético de Madrid's qualification. This with a 38.9% probability against Real Madrid's 35.2% and a 25.9% chance of a draw. This way, they place the Merengues as the defeated in this decisive and challenging knockout stage.

Obviously, this fuels Real Madrid's pride, which will surely do everything possible to secure the victory. However, by starting as underdogs, the pressure is much less and it's better for them.

Big Data Is Against Them

Despite the history and, above all, the squad that Real Madrid has, they are not considered favorites for this clash against Atlético de Madrid. While the Colchoneros have the advantage of being at home, for Madrid these scenarios are better.

Throughout history, we have seen how Atlético de Madrid encounters their great nemesis in the Champions League when they have to play against the Merengues. Without having been able to win a single knockout stage, it is very clear who the real favorite is.

However, by starting with the odds against them, things become much better for the Whites. This is because they start without any kind of pressure and have the opportunity to prove a lot in the match.

They Will Go Calmly

While they have the full responsibility to win, both because of history and their squad, they will go as calmly as possible for the victory. However, they can't be overconfident, as Atlético has proven to be a very dangerous team. This doesn't take away from the fact that Real Madrid has the best squad and they have to demonstrate why they are the best players in the world and the best team.
