Atalanta Real Madrid betting prediction

The away team comes to this stage of the UEFA Champions League (8th Finals) after having finished the group stage in the 1^st position of Group B, with 10 points won. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 24 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 10 wins and 5 losses at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 14 conceded. In their last match, for the Primera División, they got an away win against Real Valladolid by (0‑1). In the last 10 away matches Real Madrid has won 6, tied 2 and lost 2. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 5 of the last 6 matches for this competition. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 12 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 8 of those 12 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 9 of them.

Real Madrid comes to this clash motivated after a 0-1 win at Real Valladolid, registering the fourth consecutive victory in the Spanish championship: the only goal of the match was signed by Casemiro. On this trip to the Atalanta arena, coach Zinédine Zidane usually plays in a 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Vinícius Júnior, Marco Asensio and Mariano Díaz. When the away club invests in the offensive process, it does so through the left aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by the left side Ferland Mendy. The manager cannot count on Sergio Ramos, Marcelo, Álvaro Odriozola, Eden Hazard, Rodrygo, Federico Valverde, Karim Benzema and Éder Militão, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Thibaut Courtois, Raphaël Varane, Ferland Mendy, Nacho, Asensio, Luka Modrić, Casemiro, Toni Kroos, Lucas Vázquez, Isco, Vinícius Júnior.
Coach: C. Ancelotti.
