Atletico Madrid win and Both to score – No

Last weekend, the hosts suffered a shock 1-0 loss at lowly Mallorca. Meanwhile, Atletico failed to win in their previous 3 matches in all competitions.

3 wins and 2 draws for Los Colchoneros in their last five home fixtures. We think that Atletico are the main favourites to win. Moreover, If a team like Manchester City failed to score at Wanta Metropolitano, Espanyol have no chance.

Atletico Madrid Goal Handicap (-1.5)

Diego Simeone’s side have scored at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 7 home fixtures in Spanish Primera.

On Sunday, Atletico will be looking to bounce back from their Champions League disappointment.

Preliminary Review and Match prediction for Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol

Manchester City eliminated Atletico Madrid from the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night after a goalless draw at the Wanda Metropolitano. Pep Guardiola’s side advanced to the semi-finals after their 1-0 first-leg win.

The Madrid outfit were the better team that night and were unlucky to score.

The Spaniards put in an amazing performance, managing to keep the guests at bay for the majority of the match, perfectly executing Diego Simeone’s tactics. Atletico had many chances during the game, but they were unable to make the most of them.

Now, Los Colchoneros will fully focus on La Liga matches.
