Club Brugge to Win or Draw
Club Brugge have an 80% chance of winning this game as per the stats after winning eight of their last ten home games in all competitions. Atletico Madrid lost their last two games in La Liga and the Champions League and their chances of winning this game stand at 60%.
Over 2 Goals
Three of the four games played by both Club Brugge and Atletico Madrid produced over two goals. Moreover, Brugge’s four of their last five home games and Atletico’s same number of away games also ended with two or more goals.
Anytime Correct Score 1-0
Club Brugge have been impeccable so far in the Champions League with the Belgian side scoring the first goal in both of their matches. Atletico on the other side conceded first in the last game against Bayer Leverkusen.

Club Brugge
Club Brugge are off to a dream start against all odds in Group B of the 2022/23 Champions League campaign. In fact, the Belgian side have yet to concede a goal in the two rounds played during which the Blue-Blacks scored five goals. This is the fifth time Club Brugge are playing in the CL group stages since 2018 and it’s the third time they have won two games.
After winning the opening game on matchday one at home over Bayer Leverkusen, Club Brugge were the underdogs to beat Porto with odds of 7.00. However, after an excellent efficiency in front of goal where they converted their seven shots on target to four goals, Club Brugge find themselves at the top the group and with more pressure to maintain it.
Atletico Madrid
With three points from two games, Atletico Madrid are third in Group on goal difference with Leverkusen. The Rojoblanco have a 2-3 goal record which is quite low for a team of Atletico’s caliber. In addition, Diego Simeone’s men uncharacteristically conceded at least a goal in their last five fixtures in all competitions.
Having more ball possession with 53% and attacks with 117 against Bayer Leverkusen wasn’t enough for Atletico to control the game and come back from Germany with at least a point. In addition, Atletico’s goalkeeper Grbic made three crucial saves and denied the German team an even bigger embarrassment for Simeone’s side.
We expect Club Brugge to continue their surprising performances and avid defeat against an Atletico team who have lost their last two games. To conclude, we will back a double chance of a home win or draw despite the bookies favoring the Spaniards.
Betting straight for a draw in this match lands you with 3.50 times return for your stake at 22Bet. To justify, Club Brugge are on a roll and high in confidence, however, against a team of Atletico’s experience and the pressure mounting on the Belgians for a third win, we predict a draw is an obvious outcome.
