Osasuna vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Betting tips
With a sensational goal spectacle at the start of the league season, many believed that Atletico had now also grabbed the joy of the offensive game. The assumed paradigm shift in the capital just as quickly dissolved into smoke and mirrors, because in all subsequent games the Simone-Elf returned to their conventional style of play.
There can hardly be any talk of inefficiency at Atletico, what is produced on the pitch is nice to look at, but not always. Nevertheless, despite two losing games, the capitals are already back in the front of the table, as can be seen under the category football tables.
In the game Osasuna vs. Atletico Madrid the betting odds are clearly distributed in favor of the guests. That doesn’t come as a surprise, because against the Spanish middle class club the Europa League winners of 2018 should actually win.
Another piece from the screenplay by Diego Simone, whose conception of football is primarily purpose-oriented, is to be expected. One can rarely speak of a feast for the eyes.
Osasuna:
For the men from Pamplona there is an extremely difficult game ahead of them on Saturday. Although the current season has not gone bad at all, it is also clear that in the game Osasuna vs. Atletico a tip on the hosts has little chance of success. Of course, you still want to try everything so as not to make life too easy for the guests.
In the last few weeks in particular, coach Jagoba Arreste’s team really got going. With seven points from three games and no goal conceded last month, the Northern Spaniards have just got a little run.
Osasuna has shown excellent performance so far, especially on the defensive. Only four goals conceded in the current season are a very good figure and ensure that you can currently dream of participating in the European Cup, but there is still a long way to go.
It almost seems as if Osasuna Atletico had taken as a model, because the game system is completely similar to that of the capital club. In the defensive 4-4-2, the opponents are regularly placed in front of an almost impenetrable wall. Sounds like Atletico, doesn’t it?
It becomes a little problematic if you take a look at the offensive department, because Osasuna currently lacks any trace of a classic clipper. All the strikers together have only two goals this season. So it will of course be difficult to score against a defensively mostly flawless Atletico.
As can be seen from our La Liga injury list, the hosts are still missing some offensive players. The abstinence of the strikers Budimir and Avila was noticeable recently.
But even with these offensive performers, the game Osasuna vs. Atletico have hardly been able to make a forecast on the home team, without them the situation looks even grimmer. A goal win on Saturday would actually be a surprise.
Atletico Madrid:
Atletico cannot be blamed for a lack of consistency. In the league, the Simeone-Elf is always to be found in the front area, but it was only enough for the really big hit in 2014, when the Spanish championship was last won. It is difficult to answer whether there is actually anything to the accusation that greater successes are sometimes denied due to insufficient offensive courage.
The exclusively used 4-4-2 system can also be seen as a trademark of a long-standing success story, which has a clear idea generator and architect in Diego Simeone. With a tough defensive game and a powerful offensive game, quite a few successes have been celebrated. The final power of persuasion alone is sometimes a little missing.
This was also revealed by the Champions League opener against Bayern Munich, when it set a smooth 0: 4. In order to survive against large teams, it takes a little more than just defensive, destructive football. Of course, Osasuna is now a much smaller hurdle that shouldn’t pose too much of a problem for the capital city dwellers.
On Saturday, the offensive artists Suarez, Felix and Llorente are in demand, all three of whom have excellent qualities. Because that the defensive will do its job is actually clear in advance. Normally, one goal in the front is enough to win because four out of five games were zero.
Accordingly, speak at the game Osasuna vs. Atletico Madrid the odds for a success of the guests.
