Atletico Madrid hosts Celta Vigo in round 22 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Monday, February 8th at Wanda Metropolitano (Madrid)
Simeone's charges spend the current season of LaLiga in a dominant style. Atletico leads the standings with a significant lead over Barcelona and Real Madrid (with one match in reserve). The Mattress Makers have a streak of eight victories in a row. The team practically does not allow the opponents to upset its goalkeeper (only 10 goals conceded in 19 matches). And its attack is one of the best in the league (40 goals scored). Soon the team from Madrid will represent Spain in the Champions League. In winter, Atletico loaned Moussa Dembele from Lyon, who will help the team add power to the attack. Such performers as Suarez (a great season from the Uruguayan), Oblak, Jimenez, Trippier, João Felix, and Llorente are the leaders of modern Atletico. However, Condogbia, Torreira, and Carrasco have not unlocked their potential yet.

Nobody expects tournament miracles from the club from Vigo, but it should not fight for survival either. Celta is currently working under the guidance of Eduardo Coudet, an Argentinean specialist who joined the team in November 2020. In the last five rounds, the club managed to score only two points (three losses and two draws). Beyond that, the Sky Blues were eliminated in the 1/32 finals of the Spanish Cup (a 5:2 defeat to Ibiza). The tone of Celta is set by experienced football players, on whom the main bet is made (Iago Aspas, Nolito, Suarez, Mallo, and Araujo). Of the young talents in the team, it is worth highlighting Beltran, Mendez, and Baeza. With such a talent pool, the middle peasant status for Celta is a well-deserved tournament achievement.
Atletico looks like an immovable figure in the current Spanish championship. Simeone's charges have suffered only one defeat in 19 matches, conceding only 10 goals. Such a confident game allows the Mattress Makers to speak about claims to the champion’s title. And the hosts are likely to continue their winning streak.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Madrid to win
