Espanyol - Atletico: betting tip (cf 4.80) and bets on the Spanish Championship match

Current form

Espanyol came up to the start of last season as a clear candidate for relegation from Primera – the Catalans were inferior to many opponents in terms of player selection and there were frankly few chances to keep their registration. In the first round, the parrots made plenty of mistakes and quickly found themselves at the bottom of the table, but at the same time they played strong matches from time to time and did not get stuck in the relegation zone.

In the second half of the season, Espanyol managed to improve and produced several successful series, thanks to which they moved away from the danger zone, but at the same time stability was clearly lacking. At the finish, the parrots got into a bit of a crisis, but the competitors were frankly not impressive either, Espanyol finished the season on the 14th line in the table, having managed to break away from the relegation zone by two points.

In the summer, Espanyol lost their main goalkeeper, Joan Garcia, but made good money on his sale to Barcelona. Marko Dmitrovich took his place from Leganes as a free agent, and another veteran joined the team, Quique Garcia from Alaves. Espanyol looked more than decent in friendly matches and scored a 2-2 draw with Newcastle in the last one.

Current form

Atletico had improved a lot last season and was definitely betting on the championship title – the selection of players made it possible for the mattresses to fight with Barcelona and Real Madrid for the championship title. In the first round, the mattresses made several mistakes, but they stayed close to the leaders, balancing on two fronts and were generally quite successful on each of them.

In the second half of the season, Atletico became seriously involved in the fight for the championship title. At a certain point, the mattress pads got as close as possible to Barcelona and Real Madrid and put serious pressure on them. However, at the finish line, Diego Simeone's team was already out of the championship race, but they defended the third place without any problems.

In June, Atletico played in the World Club Championship, where it suffered a complete fiasco. In the group with PSG, Botafogo and Seattle, the mattresses scored six points, but it was not enough to reach the playoffs. Atletico is extremely active in the transfer market, having already managed to sign Alex Baena from Villarreal, David Gantzko from Feyenoord, Giacomo Raspadori from Napoli, Matteo Ruggeri from Atalanta, Thiago Almado from Botafogo and several other players.
