Real Madrid are set to play Atletico Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium on Thursday in the quarter-final of the Copa del Rey. Real Madrid come into this game on the back of a 2-0 win over Ernesto Valverde’s Athletic Bilbao in the league. Goals from French superstar Karim Benzema and German midfielder Toni Kroos secured the win for Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, beat Pacheta’s Real Valladolid 3-0 in the league. Goals from striker Alvaro Morata, French forward Antoine Griezmann and centre-back Mario Hermoso sealed the deal for Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid.
Right now, they are probably precariously balanced between these two standards. They are second in the league, three points behind arch-rivals Barcelona, and have won three of their last five league games. They are in the quarter-final of the Copa del Rey and have a Champions League Round of 16 match-up against Liverpool.
Los Blancos also recently lost a cup final against Barcelona. This has increased the pressure on manager Carlo Ancelotti because at Real Madrid, one game can alter the mood and change the dynamics. An exit from another cup competition would do Ancelotti no favors.

Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid Prediction
Real Madrid are football royalty. Even when they are not performing well, it is hard not to talk about them. When they are performing well, it is hard to talk about anything else.
Right now, they are probably precariously balanced between these two standards. They are second in the league, three points behind arch-rivals Barcelona. Combine that with spending €127 million to sign Joao Felix, not utilizing him properly and then sending him out on loan among other transfer mishaps, and suddenly it makes sense for curtains to be brought down on Simeone’s Atleti spell.
Prediction: Real Madrid 2-0 Atletico Madrid

However, Los Blancos have been boosted by the return of Austria international David Alaba, with Ancelotti confirming that the defender “will play” against Atletico after recovering from a calf problem.
Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, who both began as substitutes last time out, are expected to be recalled to centre-midfield, while Eduardo Camavinga is set to complete the midfield three as Tchouameni continues his recovery from injury.
Marco Asensio started on the right flank against Bilbao, but his place could come under threat from either Federico Valverde or Rodrygo, while Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema are set to retain their places in attack.
