Key factors

In contrast, Real Madrid favors a more attacking approach with their 4-2-3-1 formation under José Mourinho, emphasizing robust ball possession and offensive creativity. A possible key to victory may lie in Atletico's ability to exploit set-pieces and capitalizing on the counter, while Real Madrid will likely focus on controlling possession and creating goal opportunities through fluid plays.
