It will practically be a final this weekend in LaLiga when Atlético Madrid receives Athletic Club in a supremely important match towards the next Champions League.
The Colchonero comes from being surprised and losing 2-0 as a visitor against Alavés, which counted with the conversions of Carlos Benavidez and Luis Rioja.
The Basques drew again in LaLiga, this time 1-1 at home against Granada, one of the worst teams in the Spanish competition, and missed a great opportunity to cut distances.

¿Por qué apostar por el Atlético de Madrid?
Atlético Madrid has had a disappointing season, as it has not been competent in LaLiga, lost in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, and failed to win the Copa del Rey title. They have just lost 2-0 to Alavés away. Their executioners were Carlos Benavidez and Luis Rioja.
Despite the defeat, Cholo Simeone’s team is fourth with 61 points, three points ahead of its rival. If they were to finish the season at this point, this club would go to the next Champions League. Pero el Colchonero no es un equipo confiable. Ha perdido tres de sus últimos seis partidos y ganado los restantes. Su irregularidad les costó la eliminación en Europa ante el Borussia Dortmund.
Some pieces have lowered the level for Atletico, starting with Frenchman Antoine Griezmann, who has only scored three goals and provided one assist in the last seven matches. For his part, Spanish striker Álvaro Morata has not scored in eight games, which explains the decline of this squad.
Los jugadores lesionados son Memphis Depay, Tomás Lemar y Vitolo, mientras que Marcos Llorente y Morata deberían estar disponibles.
¿Por qué apostar por el Athletic Club?
El Athletic Club ya ha conseguido el gran objetivo de la temporada desde que conquistó la Copa del Rey, rompiendo una sequía de décadas sin poder ser campeón de dicha competición. En LaLiga, viene de empatar 1-1 con el Granada, mismo resultado que obtuvo ante el Villarreal. The worrying thing for this team is that both matches were at home. If they had won, they would have been fourth and in the Champions League zone.
With these results, the Bilbao team dropped to fifth place with 58 points, three points behind their rivals. A win at the Cívitas would allow them to equal points and overtake the Colchonero, as they have a better goal difference. Ernesto Valverde’s team has had a clear paternity over Atlético. Esta temporada ha jugado tres partidos y los ha ganado todos. Convirtieron seis goles y no permitieron ninguno.
At the away level, Athletic is not living a great present because they only won one of the last five matches. They have scored 14 goals and allowed the same amount.
A lot of attention should be paid to striker Gorka Guruzeta, who has 14 goals, four behind Ukrainian Artem Dovbyk, the tournament’s top scorer.
No injuries or suspensions have been reported.
