Essa é a melhor escolha para o clássico de Madri? – dica grátis a @2.60

Atlético could easily beat their city rivals, as they did in August.

It’s becoming increasingly certain that La Liga is a toss-up this season. The main conundrum being how long Girona can keep up with Real Madrid. However, it will be a fierce battle for the podium. And if Bilbao don’t slow down, Atlético Madrid or Barcelona’s place in the Champions League could be in jeopardy. The two sides will make up for a missed game on Wednesday night, with Atlético Madrid taking on Rayo and Barca hosting Osasuna. See what’s in store in the capital.

A few words about the absentees

To no small surprise, the Colchoneros swung a loose seven at Vallecas at the end of August, with Morata taking his share with two goals, but Griezmann, Depay, Correa, Llorente and Molina also scored. Only the French and Dutch strikers are in the provisional starting line-up, but it is still a question of how much Diego Simeone’s side will put in.

Still in contention as the only major contenders in the Spanish Cup, they have picked up important victories in recent weeks, knocking out Real and Sevilla in the Copa and beating Granada and Valencia in the league. Although the home goalscorer Álvaro Morata is likely to miss the game with a minor injury, the Griezmann-Depay pairing is still a formidable one. Apart from Morata, Azpilicueta, Lemar and Giménez are also injured, but the defence will still be good.

As for the away side, Francisco Rodriguez’s side don’t have that big a problem leaving the Vallecas, as two thirds of their points have been scored away, although 1 point at Wanda would be a bravo. A surprising statistic, but only against Bilbao did Vallecano score at least three goals, but only Sevilla scored two against them.

In fairness, the best bet here is giving itself away, despite the late summer 7-0 and Rayo’s point-scoring performance at Wanda last year. Seven of the last 11 games between the two teams have ended 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0 to Tico, as did Griezmann’s last three stakes matches. This combi final score tip would pay quite well, so we won’t even wink in any other direction.
