Betting tips for Atl. Madrid vs Malaga - 16.09.2017

The Wanda Metropolitano Stadium is officially inaugurated with the match between the team colchonero and Malaga, corresponding to the fourth day of the Santander League 17-18.

Atletico Madrid conceded their second draw in the first three days of the Santander League in Mestalla (0-0), leaving them already four points behind the leaders, FC Barcelona and Real Sociedad. Diego Pablo Simeone and his men will live a special game, playing their first match in their new home. Perhaps because of that, perhaps because of the sanction that has prevented them from incorporating players in this summer market, the rojiblanco team showed some lack of solidity and loss of identity in the first two matches (2-2 in Girona, 1- 5 in Las Palmas). However, this week, the team has drawn two scoreless draws in two difficult stadiums, such as Mestalla and the Olympic in Rome, in the debut of the Champions League, showing that they slowly regain their style of play.

In the absence of reinforcements, Simeone thanks for not having lost to Griezmann and Oblak, two names that seem to leave the team next summer. In addition, the Argentine has decided to give way to two players with huge projection, as Thomas and Correa, who have responded to perfection.



laliga santander Malaga has gone from finishing last season being the protagonist in the last 10 matches, coinciding with the arrival of Míchel to the bench, to be a shadow of that set, adding 3 losses in the first three matches.

Several of the props left the team, leaving at home less money than they were worth. Sandro (to Everton for 6 million euros of his clause), Ignacio Camacho (left for Wolfsburg in exchange for 15 million euros) and Pablo Fornals (Villarreal paid the twelve million of his rescission clause) have left a void huge on the team, as it has been seen throughout the preseason. Players like Javi García have escaped from the Malaga networks, who have spent less than 5 million euros on the signings of the Argentinean midfielder Banfield, Emanuel Cecchini; Sevilla central Atletico, Diego Gonzalez; and the Turkish goalkeeper Cenk Gönen, protagonist of one of the sings of the preseason. In addition, the left-hand side Juankar arrive free; the French central Paul Baysse; and the son of the coach, Adrian Gonzalez, who faces his former teammates Eibar. Next to them, the goalkeeper Roberto, from Espanyol, are given away; and striker Borja Bastón, with no place in the mediocre Swansea Welsh.

The team debuted with a home defeat to Eibar (0-1), before falling on their visit to Girona (1-0) the following day. The UD Las Palmas, until then unpriced, took the victory of the Rosaleda last day, demonstrating the total divorce between the owner of the team and the coach and the fans.


In such a special match for the mattresses, the precedents matter little. The Atleti will go all out against a team in crisis, led by one of the players most hated by white fans. Although the mattresses have trouble scoring, I expect a local thrashing, beating the Andalus by more than 2 goals.
