Reasons For Chelsea vs Atletico Madrid Predictions & Betting Tips

Atletico Madrid are the favourites to win this match, in what is the first ever Champions League match at their new Wanda Metropolitano stadium. The Spaniards are priced at 2.2 with Unibet.

It’s a clash between two of Europe’s elite, and two sides who are perhaps more well known for their defending rather than their attacking. It should be an intriguing, tactical battle with little between the teams.

For this reason, we are going out on a limb and backing a draw for this one at 3.3 with Unibet. More specifically, we think this could be goalless, with 0-0 priced at 8.0 with bet365.

Chelsea’s last two away trips to Atletico have ended in draws, albeit both coming at the Vicente Calderon. They drew 0-0 in the Champions League semi-final in 2014, and 2-2 in the group stages in 2009.

Both teams won at the weekend and are in good form. However, Atletico have already drawn 0-0 twice this month and often struggle to break down strong defensive units such as Chelsea.

The Blues will recognise that this is their hardest match of the group, and will perhaps opt to play fairly safe and not too many risks. They will want to win, but after getting off to a flyer beating Qarabag 6-0, a draw wouldn’t be the worst result.

After his hat-trick at the weekend many will back Alvaro Morata to score the first goal at 6.5 with bet365. However, we think no first scorer at 8.0 with bet365 could be the way to go here.

Atletico Madrid vs Chelsea Head To Head (H2H)

Atletico have had the better of recent contests, winning the European Super Cup final in 2012 and defeating the Blues in the 2013/14 Champions League semi-final. However, Chelsea were 4-0 winners at Stamford Bridge in the group stages in 2009. They have only met fiev times before in their history.
