Prediction for Betis – Atletico Madrid

Will win to 0: Atletico Madrid @ 2.50

Match of the Day 37 of the Santander League that will face Real Betis Balompié of Víctor Sánchez del Amo, in front of Atletico Madrid of Diego Pablo the “Cholo” Simeone, in the Benito Villamarín stadium.

Betis

On the one hand comes Betis, ranked 15th with 37 points, of which he has won 24 in his stadium (64.9%). Very turbulent season by Villamarín. It has always been flirting with the descent, although they have not really had any critical situation either. Gustavo Poyet was dismissed, to put in charge to Victor SDA, but of course it was not the most successful decision, especially is being demonstrated in these last games. The team is lacking in motivation, proof of that the 4-0 that took of Butarque, is a team without soul, that seems to be already on vacation, and for that reason there were hard declarations so much of its president, as of its trainer, after Finish the last match.

As for the occasions that have marked / received both by each team (local / visitor), are the following:
– Betis has scored in 13 of his 18 matches, having finished 3 games in 0-0, reason why in only 2 matches he has lost without having scored a single goal.
– Atletico Madrid, has received in 8 of his 18 matches, having tied twice, so he has won 6 times, keeping his goal to 0.

As we can see, we can not say that Betis is a team that scores few goals in their stadium, but we can say that Atletico is a team that receives very few goals, both home and away. One more than significant fact, is that of those 6 victories with the goal to 0 that Atletico has achieved as a visitor, 4 have been in their last 5 games. And the remaining game was 1-1 against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.

BETIS (6 V / 6 E / 6 D):
Victories —> Málaga / Las Palmas / Athletic / Leganés / Osasuna / Eibar
Draws —> Depor / Grenada / Celtic / Sporting / Barça / Valencia
Defeats —> Real Madrid / Espanyol / Sevilla / Real Sociedad / Villarreal / Alaves

For Betis, the 4-0, in Butarque, and the statements I mentioned before, could have touched the players’ fiber, and all the motivation they seemed to have lost, returns completely before a “big” team like Is Atlético, to give a joy to his fans.

Atletico Madrid

On the other hand comes Atletico Madrid, 3rd in the table with 74 points, having achieved 33 playing as a visitor (44.6%). Nor has it been the quietest season on the banks of the Manzanares. The team seemed to have changed their style, playing with Koke in the midfield, and “dominating” more matches, but the “Cholo” was forced to retake the scheme of previous seasons, as they were losing defensive solidity, higher Motive, of his victories. This solid defense, has been noted in recent days, where Atlético is receiving very few goals.

The goals scored by both teams (home / away) are as follows:
– Betis (Local) —> 1.2 (own) // 2.4 (total)
– Atletico de Madrid (Away) —> 1.6 (own) // 2.3 (total)

ATLÉTICO DE MADRID (9 V / 6 E / 3 D):
Victories —> Celta / Valencia / Osasuna / Eibar / Sporting / Granada / Málaga / Espanyol / Las Palmas
Draws —> Leganés / Barça / Athletic Club / Alavés / Dépor / Real Madrid
Defeats —> Sevilla / Real Sociedad / Villarreal

No doubt Atlético is favorite for this match, by staff, and moment of form of both teams, and so I hope their victory. But it is also true that it could be a turning point for both teams, their last matches.

For Atlético, the return of the “semis” of Champions. Surely they are eliminated, once again by their eternal rival, and can morally sink them, and leave the Villamarín without any motivation to compete, or on the contrary, leave with all the motivation of the world to try to forget, for a moment, the previous game . You can honestly pass both things, as they arrive with all the euphoria of having gotten in the end, who knows.

What I do expect are rotations by Atletico as there are several players that accumulate many minutes, but what I do not expect is that those rotations are in the rear, due to the few players that have available in those positions.
