Cards

Savić most bookable — 7 YC last season, facing Vinicius at the Bernabéu

El Derbi Madrileño at the Bernabéu — the most anticipated fixture of La Liga GW4. Real Madrid have the perfect 9-point start with Vinicius Júnior (22 goals, 72 SoT) in his best-ever early-season form. Atlético have Griezmann (18 goals) and their legendary defensive organisation but face a Real side on fire. Real corners (6.8), Vinicius 2+ SoT and Savić's card risk are the dominant betting angles.

CornersLow risk

Real Madrid most corners — 6.8 per game at the Bernabéu

Real Madrid averaged 6.8 corners per game in 2025/26 — one of the highest in La Liga. Vinicius' runs, Bellingham's delivery and Real's territorial dominance at the Bernabéu against Atlético's low block generates consistent corner volume.

Shots on targetLow risk

Vinicius Júnior 2+ shots on target

Vinicius had 22 goals and 72 SoT in 2025/26 — La Liga's most dangerous wide player. He has scored in GW1, GW2 and GW3 this season. Against Atlético's defensive block (42 conceded), his directness and shooting from wide make 2+ SoT a reliable pick.

Yellow cardLow risk

Stefan Savić to be booked

Savić accumulated 7 yellow cards in 2025/26 — the most of any Atlético defender. In the Madrid derby at the Bernabéu facing Vinicius' pace and Mbappé/Bellingham's movement, his aggressive defending carries very high booking risk.
