Current form
In preparation for the new season, Atletico held control meetings with varying success: two wins and two losses. All the matches were highly productive, more than two goals were regularly scored, while Madrid never managed to win back to zero. In the last sparring match, Diego Simeone's team defeated Marseille 2-1. In many ways, the instability of Atletico is due to the fact that many of the main players joined the team late. It should be noted that Madrid have significantly strengthened their squad, with Lee Kang-in, Alejandro Grimaldo and Christian Romero among the most significant acquisitions.

Current form
Malaga has not played in the Primera since the 2017/18 season. Over the past time, the team has managed to visit even the third most important division. At the end of last season, we managed to win a ticket to La Liga. The club did not make any significant acquisitions or transfers, the main thing is that it managed to preserve the core of the squad. Gabilondo and Victor Garcia left the team, and Calero, who is still injured, was signed. Malaga played five friendly matches, in which only the modest Al-Arabi won (4:2). In the last sparring match, a 2-2 draw was recorded with Fulham.
Disqualifications and injuries
Juanpe and M. Diarra are in question. Ochoa will serve his suspension. Niño, Calero, Dotor and Murillo are injured.
Interesting betting trends
Approximate composition: Herrero – Puga, Recio, Galilea, Salinas – Larrubia, Merino, Lorenzo, Munoz – Jauregui, Chupe.
Malaga returned to the Example, obviously the players will be extremely motivated to score the first points, but it's hard to do it in Madrid. And it's not just that the opponent has a significant advantage in class. In the summer, Malaga did not have a noticeable increase in the squad, plus, today there are significant losses in the squad. The visitors' defense regularly failed in control matches, conceding 11 goals in five sparring sessions. With such a game, it's hard to count on anything in the game with the mattress pads, who have decently strengthened the squad and are betting on achieving maximum results.
Our prediction is that Atletico will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 2.00

Betting on corners
From the corners, it is worth taking a closer look at the bet on a confident victory for the hosts.
