Atl. Madrid vs Celta Vigo Prediction & Betting tips
Unusual matchday for Atletico Madrid: The leaders of the table will not play their game on the 22nd matchday of the Spanish league until Monday – thus deciding ‘Jornada 22’ in La Liga.
The Rojiblancos receive Celta Vigo at the Wanda Metropolitano on Monday evening and, unsurprisingly, are of course the favorite in this game, as the betting odds show before Atletico Madrid vs. Celta Vigo.
The unusual matchday for Atletico on Monday – top teams in Spain usually do not play on Mondays – is because Atletico Madrid has got rid of the national double burden. Due to the very early elimination in the 2nd round of the Copa del Rey, Atletico no longer has an ‘English weeks’ during the week. For example, while Barcelona and Sevilla have to play in the cup every week, Atletico can put their feet up and concentrate on the league.
A big advantage in the championship fight, which could now also come into play in the home game against Celta. For this reason alone, the tip on the home side makes sense before the Monday evening game Atletico Madrid vs. Celta Vigo.
Atletico Madrid :
Always having a whole week to prepare for the next league game is a great advantage for Atletico Madrid, which has paid off in the last few weeks and is also reflected in the results.
Coach Diego Simeone’s team had their last ‘English week’ at the beginning of January; the 0: 1 in the cup on January 6th at third division UE Cornella caused a stir, but also a more relaxed game plan. Since then, Atletico has had a full week to prepare for their league games – with resounding success: All four games have been won since then, which means that Atletico is clearly at the top of the table in La Liga and is on the master course.
In general, Atletico has been harmless in La Liga since mid-December, when they lost the Madrid city derby to Real Madrid 0-2, but have not shown any nakedness in the league since then. The derby bankruptcy had no negative effect on the team’s performance, Atleti has been rushing from victory to victory since then and has won all eight league games in a row.
That is quite surprising in view of the rojiblancos. At home in particular, the league leaders are so far a force, having only failed to win one of their ten home games (9 wins / 1 draw / 0 defeats). Unsurprisingly, Atletico is the strongest home team in Spain. The three goals conceded in Wanda Metropolitano at home are also the best in La Liga.
At first glance, there is not so much in favor of said draw, more obvious is the tip on the Rojiblancos’ next home win at Atletico Madrid vs. Celta Vigo.
Celta Vigo :
Celta’s current form does not necessarily suggest that the Galicians can land a coup in the Wanda Metropolitano and that the prognosis of an away win will occur at Atletico vs. Celta Vigo. Because Celta has been waiting for a win for five games. Two points were scored in this period – with just two goals scored but nine goals conceded.
After three defeats in a row against Eibar (1: 1) and Granada (0: .0) they were able to avert two more defeats and get one point each, but you can’t be really satisfied with the two points.
Because Celta is still waiting for its first competitive game win in the calendar year 2021. Also in the Copa del Rey this did not succeed, in the 2nd round they embarrassed themselves at the third division UD Ibiza, not only eliminated, but also received a bitter 2: 5 rubdown.
The respect for leaders Atletico is also very high at Celta, which is also made clear by the words of Celta coach Eduardo Coudet, who explained in advance: “We are playing the best team in the league, which has the best coach in the league. We have to play a great game to get a good result. ”
