In the previous round, the "mattress makers" played away to Sparta Prague and had no problems - a 6:0 victory. In fact, much of that match was decided in the first half, when the visitors scored two goals.

The winning goal was scored by Correa in the added time of the second half. Today, they will return to their home arena, where Diego Simeone charges have only had one defeat, taking into account all tournaments. It happened in the third round of the Champions League against Lille (1:3).

1.70Tip and bets
Throughout the tournament, it is noticeable that Slovan is not up to par with many of its Champions League opponents in terms of play and squad. There is no point in expecting the Slovaks to dramatically improve their game and surprise the "mattress makers" in Madrid. Moreover, Atletico is on a roll, on a nine-win streak in all tournaments, and has no problems in attack. In the previous round of the Champions League, Diego Simeone team thrashed Sparta in Prague with a score of 6:0, and we will not be very surprised if today there is a victory in the same style.
Our prediction is Atletico victory with an Asian handicap (-2.5) at odds of 1.75
Bet on total
During the season, Atletico has repeatedly demonstrated that we are no longer facing a team that relies solely on defense. The "mattress makers" boldly move forward, trying to develop an advantage, not to hold on to it. Plus, today opponents are Slovan, which has big problems in defense. There is a high probability that the game will be productive.
The second bet is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 1.81
Bet on the exact difference in the score
Atletico have a noticeable advantage in class and are unlikely to limit themselves to a minimal victory, especially since the attacking game is currently underway. We expect the hosts to win with a comfortable advantage of three goals.
Prediction: Atletico win by three goals with odds of 4.30
