LiontipsAtletico Madrid vs Bayer Leverkusen. Prediction and Betting Tips for 202-23 UEFA Champions League (October 26, 2022).
Command Analysis
Atletico Madrid were the favourites in Group B, but Diego Simeone's team lost two out of four games and is currently third in the table. After a victory over Porto (2:1), the Spanish side suffered defeats to Bayer and Club Brugge with the same score of 0:2. In the previous Champions League game, Los Colchoneros drew against Club Brugge (0:0).
Atletico retain a chance of qualifying for the playoffs, but they need victories in the remaining two games. In La Liga, Simeone's men are in 3rd place after 11 games, eight points behind their cross-town rivals Real Madrid.
Bayer Leverkusen had a slow start to the season. In the Champions League, they suffered a defeat to Club Brugge (0:1) before beating Atletico (2:0). That victory remains their only one up to date. Bayer sit bottom of the group table with three points. Their chances of qualifying for the playoffs are small, and yet they may still secure the 2nd line.
Under Xabi Alonso, Bayer crushed Schalke (4:0), but then lost to Eintracht (1:5) and drew against Wolfsburg (2:2). Leverkusen dropped to 15th in Bundesliga and are just one point clear of the danger zone.
