Reasons For Chelsea vs Atletico Madrid predictions & Betting Tips
Chelsea are the favourites to win this match with odds of 2.02 with Unibet, with visitors Atletico Madrid the outsiders at 3.70 with Unibet to take the three points at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues have already qualified from Group C of the Champions League, but still need a win against 2014 and 2016 finalists Atletico to ensure top spot.
Both teams will have an eye on events in Rome, particularly the visitors who first need to win themselves and also hope Qarabag take points in the Stadio Olimpico if they are to qualify.
It will be a tactical clash between two of the most well organised teams in Europe. Antonio Conte and Diego Simeone both set up their teams to be as tough to beat as possible.
For this reason, we could see Atletico and Chelsea cancelling each other out and playing out a draw at 3.60 with bet365. However, it’s not a result that would particularly suit either.
If Chelsea drop points and Roma win then they will finish second and risk playing the likes of Barcelona or PSG in the last 16. This could encourage them to play attacking football, but they are up against the joint best defence in Europe’s top five leagues.
Despite their poor start to the season which leaves them on the brink of Champions League elimination, Atletico have been much improved recently and have won their last four matches.
Their main problem this season is too many draws – they very rarely lose – and we could see the two teams defences taking centre stage here in a 0-0 stalemate at 10.00 with bet365.
