Atletico Madrid vs. Real Madrid

[juanego]

Real Madrid has troubles between Ramos and Ronaldo, and Jose Mourinho is not happy with the club either all this according to the news. Real has the curse at Copa del Rey.
Atletico Madrid has to get at least 2 goals on top of R. Madrid to ensure they kick em off the quaterfinals. Bad thing is they lost their striker S. Aguero for the next 2 weeks and haven't beaten Real Madrid in 19 games, good thing is they have the home field advantage
I see the smart play is the OVER. with goals from Forlan and Ronaldo, maybe a suprising 3 - 1 from Real Madrid.
Thoughts?

Under. 1-1.

I'm trying to figure out what is going to happen today!

I really think Real Will win today! Basically cause Mourinho don't wanna lose! Even if he is having problems with the direction of the club!
He wanna show them that he can win! I think he also wanna piss off Valdano.

If Madrid somehow lose this game and stays out of Copa del Rey that will be just terrible!

I'm thinking Real wins again. Lots of injuries on Atletico's side, not to mention their poor record in previous matches against Real.

[JOHON8]

They can still lose and qualify. They can even lose by 2 goals and still have a chance to qualify in ET/penalties. I don't think Atletico will just bend over and let Madrid show everyone they are 'back in form'. There should be a longer process for that.

What I got from the last game was Atletico putting up a descent fight but getting their asses screwed by the referee. At home they should do a lot better. I think +1 for Atletico is a gift, they are not losing this game by more than 1 goal if they want to fight to qualify in front of their fans.

Madrid don't need to win, and will likely rest good players.

I'm not sure he's going to rest players!

It's the statistics and they say Mourinho has played 90% of the minutes with 14 players! Mourinho doesn't like to be changing a lot. In some games that are already decided he may change players just in last 25-30 minutes which is in fact not so much.

I think he'll start with the usual ones or almost all of them.

In 3 days Madrid has a league game, after that draw to Almeria they have to be perfect in the league from now on...

All I gotta say is that Madrid won't be playing this game like a final and 'blowing' out Atletico, so IMO that's why +1 is such a good bet.

[pouroupoupou]

[Djordy]

[zpapalash]

[Ace_of_Spades]

[spirta]

In any case they have to play! For example a 1-0 for Atletico start leading will make Real to play harder cause 2-0 and they may be out!

In both La Liga and Copa del Rey they have just 1 team to face and it's Barca! In La liga will be a battle till the end. In Copa del reay I'm sure that Barca will be in the final! Madrid is the one that has to play to be there.

My first thought is to play the Over. But Real does have the skill at times to hold teams off. Maybe 1-0 Real..2-0 at most

[OnuRC]

Atletico to first goal is good play

[Slainte]

Over seems to be the best choice IMO

[RubberKettle]

Is Jose ready to announce hes leaving after this campaign now or is he waiting till they get bounced from Europe?

[drgonzo111]

Motivation wil be key, and for that I'm picking atletico +1 despite the injury concerns.

[Jhaug98]

I'm going 3-1 Madrid. I don't see them letting up.

[OilyDave]

Both Teams to Score, 3 Units!

[erkanua]

Both Teams to Score, 3 Units!

I think this is the safest bet

[mygooglik]

Real easy win and take the Cup ) BOL!

[Rixsaw]

Only 1 game on the board today, anyone knows where all the money is going? My guess would be Real. If Real can't afford to lose a draw will keep Real in contention no? Just thinking out loud.

I think JOHON is on to something good. Good luck.

EDIT: apparently there are other games but my book is not offering them.... But I still think a draw is probable.

[hustla]

Atletico +0.5 +1, is a good play imo

[GoldRush7]

I hope real shows up strong

[syamster]

Atletico never win against real from 2003, but may be today is the day, atletico going to win, anyway real have a good lead 3-1. So its better to take +1 Atletico

[iuliux]

3-0 for Real.

[dee_jas]

i could see this being a one goal game

[rfr3sh]

Real doesn't need to score, I think they will sit back all game and it will be boring so under 3.5

[yisman]

They will win for sure, 2 - 1 real

For sure? Really? And you're predicting 2-1?

[Dad]

over 3.5 and Atletico win

Same two plays I am on. Good luck to us.
