Elche vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Tips
Atletico Madrid take on Elche to secure their place in the Champions League. The Colchoneros are fourth in the standings, six points ahead of Betis, and if they win their next game, with just two rounds left to play, they could already celebrate qualification. The extra boost for Simeone’s side, who have looked decidedly lacklustre in the last month, could come from Saturday’s 1-0 win over Real Madrid, following a 2-0 defeat to Bilbao and a 0-0 draw with Granada. The next opponent could be a fairly soft one for the capital city team, as Elche have 39 points and are already safe. With no more ambitions in the league table, the home side have stumbled twice in the last two games, losing to Cadiz 3-0 and drawing with Osasuna 1-1. Atletico Madrid are therefore clear favourites for the final victory.
Elche have lost three of their last five home games.
There are 25 points between the two teams in the table.
Atletico Madrid have won three of their last five away games in La Liga.
The Colchoneros have won all of their last seven games against Elche in La Liga.
Atletico Madrid will win the match against Elche. Our prediction derives from two factors: the first is technical, needless to say that Simeone has a much stronger team, the second is mental, the Colchoneros in fact need to win to win a place in the next Champions League. Elche, on the other hand, has only the motivation to try to play a good game against a big league team, since they have already achieved salvation. It seems to us a little bit not to think about the success of the capital team.
