Atletico Madrid will look to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit when they host Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final. Despite falling short at the Bernabeu, Diego Simeone’s men have a strong home record and will believe they can fight back against their cross-town rivals.
1. Prediction: Atletico Madrid to Win (Draw No Bet) – Odds 5/4
Atletico Madrid have been in fantastic form at home, winning 10 of their last 12 matches at the Metropolitano. They’ve also won eight of their last nine home Champions League games, showcasing their ability to perform on Europe’s biggest stage. Real Madrid’s away form in big games has been underwhelming this season, with Los Blancos winless on the road against La Liga’s top eight. Given Atletico’s home dominance and Real’s struggles, the hosts are great value at 5/4 on the Draw No Bet market. Bet now with Bet365
2. Prediction: Both Teams to Score – Odds 8/11
Both sides possess incredible attacking quality, and with Atletico needing goals to turn the tie around, an open game could ensue. Real Madrid have conceded in their last three visits to Atletico, and the hosts are sure to press forward in search of a crucial win. Given the attacking firepower on display from both sides, backing both teams to score at 8/11 seems like a solid bet. Place your bet now with Bet365
3. Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals – Odds 4/5
Despite the attacking potential, Atletico Madrid’s defensive setup under Simeone cannot be overlooked. Real Madrid struggled to create many chances in the first leg, with an expected goals (xG) difference of just 0.7 to 0.2 in their favour. Atletico will look to keep things tight at the back, and this could result in a low-scoring affair. Under 2.5 goals at 4/5 is a strong choice based on both teams’ tactical approaches.
