Tip and bets
Opponents are too far from each other right now, capital team is just much better than the visitors. Granada are just one point clear of the relegation zone, but the Nasrids are unlikely to put up a good fight to the hosts, who are in a great form.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1,5) on Atletico
Atletico look disastrous on defense this season, it is very surprising to see such a bad defensive performance from Diego Simeone's team. We don't think that teams will sit out on defense, because Madrid team has an offensive potential to showcase. In each of three latest head-to-head matches no less than three goals were scored and we are expecting the same result today.
Our second bet is on total over 2.5 goals
