A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Football : Copa del Rey
16th January 2019 – Kickoff 19:30 [Madrid, Spain Time]
Introduction:
Atletico Madrid will start as favourites for this match for a place in the quarter finals but Girona has managed a 1-1 draw and now Atletico Madrid has the advantage playing on their home field. However they cannot take Girona lightly who has already played three draws in the La Liga.
Atletico Madrid
Even though they hardly lose matches lately but they play a lot of draws and even if they win matches it is by the odd goal. This means that they are not performing brilliantly and against Sevilla they had to be satisfied with a 1-1 draw. In their last match they managed a 1-0 win over Levante at home. That lone goal also came from the penalty spot, which was converted by Griezmann.
Now for the team news, center-back Savic is injured, which is a big absence for them here. On the other hand, Saul Niguez is out suspended. Coach Simeone will definitely make changes in this match.
FC Girona
They have not managed to win in their last six games and they are in poor form even though they have not lost in their last four games. They have drawn their last three La Liga matches as well as the first leg with Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey. Stuani was on target but it was not enough to win the match.
Now we can expect Coach Eusebio to rest most of the players as he did in their first leg.
Past Meetings:
In the first leg it ended in a 1-1 draw.
