Los Rojiblancos equally needed penalties to see off Guadalajara Chivas in their last ICC game.

Atleti have not beaten Real inside 90 minutes since the 2018 Champions League semi-final second leg which they won 2-1, but still ultimately lost 4-2 on aggregate. A chance for victory in New Jersey is priced at (3.30).

It’s easy for tipsters to predict a draw here considering both Madrid sides have drawn their opening International Champions Cup games.

Four of their last eight competitive meetings have also ended in stalemates and it’s (3.60) to go that way at the MetLife Stadium on Friday.
