Expert Betting Tips

Athletic has already beaten Madrid three times this season. First, they got 2:0 in the first round of La Liga and then 4:0 in both the Copa del Rey semi-finals. The Basques have become an uncomfortable opponent for Madrid, which should only motivate the capital city team. Atletico have an excellent home record, while the Basques seem to have a moment of weakness after winning the Copa del Rey, which has been reflected in their La Liga results. We choose the home team and do not expect an excellent performance from the game.
