Reason for Betis vs Atletico Madrid Predictions
Real Betis may have had to ride their luck against Villarreal, but that didn’t stop them from picking up three good points. Ayoze Perez scored the first goal in the 20th minute, but they conceded only after the hour mark. At 1-1, it looked like the points would be shared until Willian Jose scored in the 95th minute. Betis now have a great chance to make it two wins, but they are aware of the difficulties in the game against Atletico Madrid. Also, the home team must be prepared for a strong opponent who is perfect in defense and strong in attack. Mark Rocca controls the ball very well, he can play in several positions, and every club needs such a player. Borja Iglesias is a great player, he causes a lot of problems for his opponents, and the biggest virtue of this guy is his speed. As for absence, there is only one fitness concern that Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini can deal with thanks to an almost full squad. Nabil Fekir (ruptured cruciate ligament) is ruled out.
Atletico Madrid looked phenomenal against Granada in the first leg as they secured a 3-1 win to go top of the league. Granada equalized, it was 1:1 for a long time, Atleti moved into second gear as they scored goals through Memphis Depay and Marcos Llorente and won all three points. Against Betis, Atleti will have to make sure they are not drawn into a position that allows their opponents to counter-attack. Have not lost to Real Betis when they’ve played them away from home in the last 4 league games. A very good record, indeed. Are unbeaten in their last 2 away league matches. Joao Felix enjoys the pitch, and when he receives the ball and goes towards the goal, the opponent has problems. He is strong, and it is challenging to keep this guy. Diego Simone has incredible energy and a winning mentality, he encourages his players at all times, and that’s why he is among the best coaches in the world. Thanks to a fully injury-free group ready to go, Atlético Madrid boss Diego Simeone has no fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this clash.
Conclusion
Atletico Madrid is a slight favorite in this match, tradition is on Atleti’s side, and Diego Simeone knows how derby matches are won.
We can expect a big fight between these two teams, and both of them should be able to score. One thing is for sure – football fans should enjoy this game.
