Betting on Arenteiro
With nine victories, five ties, and just one loss in 15 games, Arenteiro is the second division’s most reliable squad in Spain. Their defense has been particularly strong, as they are one of the two teams with the lowest goal conceded totals (7), which has helped them hold into the top spot.
They reached this second round of the Copa del Rey after defeating Almeria with a score of 2-0. After that victory, they lost to Compostela, but they recovered and now have gone four matches without losing.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Diego García, Germán Novoa, Mario García, Pol Bueso, José Carlos Márquez; Agustín Pastoriza, Curro Rivelott, Alex Fernández, Marcos Rodríguez, Luis Gonzaga, Antón Escobar.
Betting on Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid is among the top five in Spain’s LaLiga with 24 points, the result of seven wins, three draws and four defeats in 14 games. Their last few league games were not the best, with two draws and a loss.
In total, they had a run of five games without a win between LaLiga and the Champions League, but that ended when they beat Almazán 2-0 in the previous round of the Copa del Rey. The colchonero team scored a goal in each half to reach this stage. A few days ago, they held a friendly match against Ponferradina, which was a 2-4 win.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Jan Oblak, Reinildo Mandava, Mario Hermoso, Stefan Savic, Sergio Diez, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Yannick Carrasco, Thomas Lemar, Pablo Barrios, Carlos Martin, Ethyan Gonzalez.
JefeBet Prediction
Regardless of the form in which these teams arrive at this match, the differences between the two are very evident, which make the colchonero side the frontrunner as the favorite here.
Prediction: Atlético de Madrid wins by a score of 3-1.
