MANCHESTER UNITED VS ATLETICO MADRID: BETTING TIPS
MANCHESTER UNITED
Manchester United managed to secure a 1-1 draw at the Wanda Metropolitano, meaning that a home win at Old Trafford secures safe passage to the Champions League Quarter-Final stage for the first time since the 2018/19 campaign.
In Spain, the Red Devils struggled to handle the high press of Diego Simeone’s men, without offering too much going forward. With some good defending and a bit of luck, the English side managed to stay in the game until the substitute, Anthony Elanga, came on and calmly finished a wonderfully threaded through-ball from Bruno Fernandes.
In the Premier League, Manchester United overcame Tottenham Hotspur with an inspired performance by Cristiano Ronaldo who registered his second-ever hat-trick in a United shirt to seal a very important 3-0 victory.
Cristiano Ronaldo is measured at 19/10 (2.90) to continue his fine form and find the back of the net this Tuesday.
Manchester United to win with a correct score of 1-0 is also available at 9/2 (5.50).
ATLETICO MADRID
Atletico Madrid find themselves fourth in the La Liga after being surpassed by FC Barcelona with a game in hand.
In the first leg of the Champions League, Los Colchoneros piled a ton of pressure on the Red Devils, but they were unable to extend their 1-0 lead with another goa. With near misses from substitute, Antoine Griezmann and Sime Vrsajliko, Diego Simeone was left frustrated at the end of the first leg with a shared 1-1 scoreline.
In their latest victory against Cadiz, Atletico Madrid started off on the front foot. Young forward Joao Felix was on hand during the early stages of the match to convert his chance on goal and put his side ahead.
