Atletico Madrid are one of the leaders of the Spanish LaLiga. “Los Colchoneros” faced no problems in beating Elche in the previous round of the Copa del Rey. In the recent clashes played on the road the club deserved 0:1 defeat from Espanyol but managed to break Betis 1:0 and thrash Levante 5:0. In general, Atletico Madrid have looked quite solid in the latest games conducted at away turfs, having lost only one match with six wins gained in 10 LaLiga battles. The club’s offense as well as its defense demonstrates excellent results, having scored 17 and conceded only five goals.
It’s obvious that “Los Colchoneros” have better chances for a triumph in the forthcoming head-to-head as they perform on a higher level and currently stay in a great shape. Thus, Lleida have little chances for earning a good result in the upcoming clash, nevertheless, the side will definitely give a fight on the football pitch and will battle till the very end.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Madrid to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
