Granada vs Atletico Madrid
Spain-La Liga
Date: Saturday, 13 February 2021
Kick-off at 13:00 UK/ 14:00 CET
Venue: Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes (Granada).
After dropping two points in a 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo, Atletico Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they take on Granada at Estadio Nuevo los Carmenes on Matchday 23.
The capital club have been impressive in front of goal of late, and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play against los Granadinos.
Luis Suarez look unstoppable at the moment, meaning that the opposition defenders should have him at bay.
Even though Dembele, Hermoso, Herrera, Joao Felix, and Lemar have been tested positive for coronavirus, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the league leaders, who are eager to put an end to close the gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Granada, on the other hand, are on a four-game winless run in Primera Division, which is yet another reason why away win should be considered.
