Atletico vs Leganes: Spanish Championship Match Prediction
Atletico will play in the tenth round of the Primera championship at their home stadium Metropolitano on October 20 against Leganes. The last face-to-face meeting ended in a draw. Will the visitors be able to put up a fight in Madrid and what are the prospects for the White-Reds? Our experts have assessed the teams' chances and prepared the best bets for the game.
Command Analysis
Atletico Madrid
SpainCurrent form
Only two teams remain unbeaten in La Liga after nine rounds, and both of those teams hail from the capital, one of them being Atletico Madrid (four wins, five draws). Even with such a brilliant start, the Mattress Makers still enter this round seven points behind the top of La Liga after three draws in their last four games. They are looking to improve that record against Leganes, but are somewhat limited here by the fact that crowd trouble during the Real Madrid clash forced a partial stadium closure. The hosts need it, as they have won just two of their last five home games in La Liga.
Disqualifications and injuries
Le Normand (head injury), Llorente (knee injury) and Azpilicueta (calf injury) will not be able to take to the pitch.
Interesting trends for betting
Angel Correa could be the man to take advantage of Leganes' weaknesses in the closing stages, given that his two goals for Atletico this season have come in second-half stoppage time.
Atletico have won three of their four home games against Leganes in the top flight
Estimated line-up : Moldovan - Zubeldia, Normand, Witsel, Lino - Koke, de Paul, Gomez, Riquelmy - Griezmann, Sorloth.
Leganes
SpainCurrent form
Leganes may be hoping their goal drought ends today, as their only league game this season in which more than two goals have been scored has given them their only win so far. They enter this round just above the relegation zone, but a run of seven league games without a win means their position is looking more precarious with each passing week, with fears of an immediate return to the second tier growing. Furthermore, lapses in concentration have certainly not helped them this season, as seven of the nine goals they have conceded in the league have come after the hour mark.
Disqualifications and injuries
Garcia will not be able to take to the football field (injury).
Interesting trends for betting
Leganes are unbeaten in their last 11 Sunday La Liga matches
Juan Cruz has scored three of Leganes' five goals this season, two of which were openers, and he has never been beaten when scoring for the club
Estimated line-up : Soriano - Lopez, Brsanac, Cisse, Cruz - de la Fuente, Franquesa, Gonzalez, Guairo - Hernandez, Raba.

1.65Tip and bets
We believe that today there is hope for spectacular attacking football. The visitors have a serious shortage of goals scored, while they look terrible in defense, especially in the second half, when their strength is running out. In addition, Madrid attacking potential looks very frightening, which may ultimately be reflected on the scoreboard and will please fans of scored goals.
Our forecast is total over 2.5 goals and we bet on it for 2.12
Bet on the outcome
Today we are on the side of the experienced Diego Simeone, who is able to set his team up for a duel with any opponent, especially one as unpredictable as Leganes. Most likely, due to their experience and incredible individual skill, the Indians will take full control of the game from the first minutes, which will bring them a convincing success.
Forecast - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Atletico and we bet on it with odds of 2.02
Yellow Card Betting
This fight will most likely not be an exception and may lead to a lot of violations, some of which may be severely condemned by the referee. Moreover, in two of the last four fights, the referee did not show less than four yellow cards.
Forecast - total yellow cards over four. This option can be found for 1.71
