Final Betting Analysis: Atletico Madrid vs Manchester United
This is a tough match to handicap because Atletico Madrid is in much better form than Manchester United, but the match happens at Old Trafford where United is always tough to beat.
Not only that, but we must question Atletico’s excellent form. Yes, they’ve dominated. However, beating Bets by 2 goals impressed, but how good of a team is Cadiz or Celta Vigo?
Neither would challenged the Red Devils. In addition, United believes they deserve a look to win the Champions League. Man U is one of the top underdogs left in the CL.
The team turned their form around against Tottenham, know they have a slight lead on the aggregate because of their road goal, and believe they deserve a spot in the final eight. Atletico won’t make it easy, but the Red Devils can make a statement. They’ll beat Atletico in regulation.
