Atletico and Barcelona look to book a place in the final with Real Madrid after an eight-goal first leg

La Liga leaders Barcelona will look to book their place in the Copa del Rey final tonight as they visit Atletico Madrid for the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final tie.

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.

Date, kick-off time and venue

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.

Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona team news

The hosts boast a clean bill of health now Koke has returned to the squad having recovered from injury. Suspended is Angel Correa, who will serve the third match of his four-match ban after being sent off against Getafe in March.

Barcelona’s injury list is comparatively dramatic. Dani Olmo is set to miss Wednesday’s match with an abductor injury, while Marc Casado, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, and Marc Bernal are all set for longer spells in the physio room with ligament injuries.

Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona prediction

There was little to separate the two sides in the first leg, but Barcelona’s late win at the Metropolitano in March suggests the Blaugrana will be more than up for the challenge.

Still high-flying in the league and unbeaten since mid-December, it would be smart to back Barcelona in this tie - but it will be close.
