Betting on Club Atletico de Madrid
Although Atletico Madrid has little chance of competing for the top spot in the league, they can consolidate their position in the Champions League for the next campaign with a win against direct rivals Real Betis this Sunday.
Under the leadership of Diego Cholo Simeone, Atletico Madrid has been one of the hottest teams in the league since the end of the international break. With their sole focus on La Liga, they will strive to achieve their European objective, which seems almost certain.
Currently, standing third in the league standings with 51 points, six points ahead of fifth-placed Betis, The Colchoneros are unbeaten in their last ten league matches, winning eight and drawing two.
In addition to this good performance, Atletico Madrid boasts the second-best defense in the league, having conceded only 19 goals in 26 matches. And, as usual under Simeone’s leadership, their home stadium is a fortress that opponents struggle to breach.
In 13 home matches, they have lost only three times and have gone unbeaten in their last five home games, earning at least one point in each of those matches. In fact, in their last two matches at the Metropolitano, the offensive has blossomed with nine goals in total against Sevilla and Valencia.
Possible lineup (5-3-2): Jan Oblak; Nahuel Molina, José María Giménez, Mario Hermoso, Stefan Savic, Yannick Carrasco; Koke, Rodrigo de Paul, Marcos Llorente; Antoine Griezmann, Álvaro Morata.
Betting on Real Betis
After being eliminated by Manchester United in the Europa League round of 16, Real Betis’ entire focus should be on securing a spot in next season’s Champions League.
That’s why Sunday’s match is crucial for Betis, as they face direct rivals Atletico Madrid for a place in the European spots. Therefore, a loss would push them far away from that goal.
Betis approaches this clash in fifth place with 45 points, six behind third-placed Atletico and just three behind Real Sociedad in fourth place, which also qualifies for the 2023-24 Champions League.
Moreover, they are in good form in La Liga, going undefeated in their last six matches and earning ten points in their last four away games. All these factors make the upcoming match against Atletico Madrid vs Real Betis a highly anticipated encounter that promises to be full of excitement and drama.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Rui Silva; Aitor Ruibal, Germán Pezzella, Víctor Ruiz, Juan Miranda; Guido Rodríguez, William Carvalho, Joaquín, Ayoze Pérez, Rodri; Borja Iglesias.
JefeBet Prediction
This upcoming Sunday’s match between Atletico Madrid and Real Betis is shaping up to be a thrilling battle for supremacy and a must-watch for any sports betting enthusiast. With both teams vying for a top-four spot in La Liga and a chance to play in next season’s Champions League, this game is sure to be a nail-biter.
But facing Simeone’s squad at the Metropolitano has been a nightmare for the Béticos. They have failed to score in nine of their last ten visits to Atlético’s home ground with the Argentine in charge, and have only managed to grab a point in that period.
On the other hand, Atletico has been unstoppable since the end of January and their home ground has become a stronghold, not just for Betis but for the rest of the Spanish circuit. With top-notch players like Álvaro Morata, who has scored ten goals, and Antoine Griezmann, who has scored nine, Atletico is a force to be reckoned with.
