The Metropolitano, Atlético's Goalscoring Talisman
Atlético de Madrid returns to the Metropolitano, a territory where goals seem guaranteed. The Rojiblancos face a crucial match, where securing mathematical qualification for the Champions League is the primary objective.
The Colchonero fans hope to repeat the recent performances at home, where the team has demonstrated remarkable striking power. The recent matches at the Metropolitano have been a goalscoring feast, with seven goals in the last two matches against Valladolid and Rayo Vallecano, demonstrating Simeone’s team’s offensive capacity when playing supported by their fans.
These numbers contrast with the team’s goalscoring performance away from home. In recent away matches, Atlético failed to penetrate the opponent’s goal, either due to a lack of aim or the absence of clarity in the offensive game.
However, this goal drought is not replicated at the Metropolitano, where the team is much more effective. With 34 goals scored at home, Atlético positions itself as one of the highest-scoring teams at home, surpassed only by Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Villarreal.
Furthermore, Atlético has demonstrated great defensive solidity at home, suffering only one defeat at the Metropolitano. Tomorrow, the Rojiblanca fans hope that the team maintains its goalscoring streak and its strength at home to secure the long-awaited qualification for the Champions League.
