Elche vs Atlético Madrid Prediction
Elche are currently bottom of the league table and will play in the second division next season, as 18 points separate them and 18th-placed Getafe with five games remaining. They have lost four of their last five league games and they will hope to finish the season with a respectable points tally.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, are second in the standings and have won four of their last five league games. They are one point ahead of third-placed Real Madrid and have done well in recent weeks under Diego Simeone’s management.
France international Antoine Griezmann did not enjoy the best of times at Barcelona, and there were doubts as to whether he would be able to resurrect his career. His second spell at Atletico Madrid has once again displayed his qualities. Griezmann was one of the best players at the World Cup playing in midfield and he has arguably been Atletico Madrid’s best player this season.
Prediction: Elche 0-2 Atletico Madrid
