Why Bet on Atlético Madrid?

Atlético de Madrid has one of the strongest squads in Spain and is expected to be in the fight for the LaLiga championship this year under the tutelage of “Cholo” Simeone.

However, on the first matchday, they were held to a 2-2 draw by Villarreal. The conversions were the work of Marcos Llorente and the Norwegian Alexander Sorloth.

The Aleti made an important bet in the market: they acquired the defender Robin Le Normand, the English midfielder Connor Gallagher, and the strikers Sorloth and the Argentinean Julián Álvarez, who is the greatest hope of the fans because of the duo he can create with the French Antoine Griezmann.

Julián is a world and American champion, and, with Manchester City, he not only won the Premier League twice but also the Champions League.

Even though Simeone’s teams are based on their order, this team has good players and without a doubt, there is an improvement in terms of what Álvaro Morata used to give and what there is today with attackers such as Sorloth and Julián.

Atletico, for now, reports no injuries or suspensions to face this match in front of their fans.

Why Bet on Girona?

Girona no longer has the surprise factor of last season, when they qualified for the Champions League for the first time in their history. But it is expected that Míchel will be able to maintain the great game of this squad.

In the first matchday, they had a tough visit to Real Betis and drew 1-1. Gabriel Misehouy scored the goal for the Catalan club.

With the Champions League in mind, this team signed Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek, who is looking for a resurgence in his career. They also got the Czech defender Ladislav Krejci and the Spanish striker Abel Ruiz. In addition, they have just signed the Colombian jewel Yaser Asprilla in the most expensive purchase in the club’s history: 18 million euros and up to 7 million in bonuses for goals.

All are gambles for the Montilivi team, but they are confident that the coach can continue to channel the talent of promising young players, as has been happening for a couple of seasons.

For Girona this is also an opportunity to beat Atletico away, something they have never done in their history.

Their injured players are Viktor Tsygankov, Manu Vallejo, and Valery Fernández.
