Levante vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Betting tips
Champions League aspirant against gray mouse, that could be summarized the duel between UD Levante and Atletico Madrid on Tuesday evening.
While Atletico, sitting in fourth place, has a close eye on the Champions League ranks and desperately needs every point when it comes to participating in the premier class, Levante is no longer concerned with anything.
The “Granotas” rank in eleventh place in the comfortable midfield – nothing will go up or down. Levante is nine points behind the Europa League, twelve points ahead of relegation ranks – there is hardly a lot more mediocrity.
But that can be an advantage – as the last game of the frogs showed – because they can play without pressure and did so during the visit to Espanyol Barcelona, where they promptly won 3-1.
Atletico is under a lot of pressure. The team from the Spanish capital absolutely wants to reach the premier class. The starting point is clear, and a look at the betting providers shows Levante vs. Atletico Madrid that the odds speak for Atletico.
Levante:
It’s hard to believe, because Levante UD is one of the most unassuming teams in La Liga, but the small club from the city of Valencia has been unbeaten since the Spanish Primera Division started again.
In the three previous games there have been two draws (1-1 in the city derby against Valencia CF, 1-1 against Sevilla) and a recent win at Espanyol Barcelona. Five points that not many had expected – after all, Levante was the clear outsider both against Valencia and Sevilla, while the revived Espanyol was more to be trusted in the relegation battle at home at the RCDE stadium.
Overall, Levante has been unbeaten for four games, so persistently got rid of relegation worries. The “Granotas” have a twelve-point lead on the 18th table. Mallorca, a more than soothing cushion. So Levante will have nothing to do with the relegation, probably not with the European Cup places either, with nine points behind in seventh place.
Levante comfortably ranks eleventh in the middle of the La Liga, which is a great success for Levante – after all, relegation is the clear goal.
Attackers Borja Mayoral, who said after the 3-1 win at Espanyol, said the same: “For us it is a coup in terms of the table – we are not yet mathematically saved, but we know how important it is. “Midfielder Enis Bardhi meanwhile called it” a very big step. ”
With this calming lead over the relegation ranks, Levante can play free, also against the “Rojiblancos”, which are obviously favorites on Tuesday, as in the game Levante vs. Atletico Madrid showing the betting odds.
Atletico Madrid:
At the moment there is satisfaction not only at Levante, but also at Atletico Madrid. Two wins in a row, six points, zero goals conceded – Atletico is back on track to fight for the Champions League.
After a lavish and amazing 5: 0 was celebrated in Osasuna, Atleti went into his usual ‘business as usual’ mode in the home game against Real Valladolid, winning as usual with the favorite result of 1: 0.
Since Champions League competitors Getafe (1-1 against Eibar), Real Sociedad (1-2 against Real Madrid) and Sevilla (0-0 against Barcelona) all failed on matchday 30, Atletico is now four points ahead of rank five.
The Rojiblancos also gained this lead through eight games without defeat, four wins and four draws during this time. Although the Simeone team has still amassed the most draws in La Liga, a whopping 13 in total, the last two wins in a row make the record appear much more pleasing.
In Levante Atletico now faces the team with the fewest draws in the Primera Division (five in number, just as few as Barcelona, Mallorca, Villarreal and Real Sociedad also have) – but Levante has accumulated three of his five draws in the last few days.
