Atl. Madrid vs Ath Bilbao Prediction & Betting tips
Lovers of Spanish top football will be served again on Wednesday evening, when leader Atletico Madrid takes on Athletic Bilbao in its own Wanda Metropolitano. The Madrid people are the logical favorite, but the visitors from the Spanish Basque Country are in top shape!
Atletico Madrid:
Atletico Madrid are still comfortably in the lead in LaLiga after last weekend’s Madrid derby ended in a 1-1 draw against close attacker Real Madrid. Diego Simeone had undoubtedly signed up for such a result beforehand, although the red and white were ultimately only two minutes away from their very first derby victory at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Atletico Madrid, however, cannot afford much loss of points, especially now that the Madrid people are feeling the hot breath of FC Barcelona in their neck. Los Colchoneros have played a game less, and will therefore have the opportunity to expand their lead over Lionel Messi and associates to six points on Wednesday evening. From now on, however, the pressure is full, because in the event of a point loss, we are facing an unprecedentedly exciting final phase in LaLiga. In addition, Atleti has something to rectify in-house, because the last three duels in its own Wanda Metropolitano yielded only two points.
Athletic Bilbao:
Since the arrival of Marcelino, Athletic Bilbao has been unstoppable. Under his leadership, the Basques unsurprisingly took the Spanish Supercopa at the beginning of this year, but they also managed to reach the final of the Copa del Rey last week. With a bit of luck, Athletic Bilbao can take no fewer than three prizes this year, also because last year’s postponed cup final is scheduled for short.
Athletic Bilbao is also doing well in the competition, after goldcrest Alex Berenguer shot his team past Granada just before time last weekend: 2-1. The Basques have now moved up to eighth place in LaLiga, which means they have European football back in their sights. Since Marcelino’s appointment, Athletic Bilbao has only lost twice, both times against FC Barcelona. The Lions have never managed to win in the Wanda Metropolitano, but will undoubtedly travel to Madrid with great confidence.
