The start for Atletico in the Spanish Cup ended in failure, where already at the first stage the leader of Primera was defeated by Cornelli (0:1) from the third league, which proved that no opponent should be underestimated. Fans of the capital’s club had hopes for the team’s performance in the Champions League, but at the first stage, the Indians got into rivals Chelsea, who beat Diego Simeone’s charges twice (1:0 and 2:0). After 35 rounds in the current Primera championship there are 23 victories and eight peaceful outcomes in the asset “mattress”, which brought 77 points and the first position in the standings. After the red-whites had a huge reserve of tournament points at the end of winter, the team lost ground and let competitors close. The gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona is two points, which does not give hosts the right to make a mistake. After the defeat at the end of April to Athletic (1:2), the leader defeated Elche (1:0) and shared the tournament points with Barcelona (0:0). Today Lemar, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to enter the field.
The Gunners generally failed this season. The team has already taken off from all English cups. The bet on the Europa League, through which it was possible to get into the Champions League, if it was possible to win the trophy, did not work either. However, in the semifinals Arsenal gave way to Villarreal on aggregate. In the English Championship, the tournament situation does not look optimistic either. Arsenal are now only in eighth place. From the seventh line, which could become the European Cup, Mikel Arteta’s charges are four points behind, but the group of competitors is too strong. West Ham, Liverpool, Tottenham and the same Everton is too early to write off. The Toffees are three points ahead of the Gunners and have played one match less. Arsenal played the last away matches quite successfully. In five previous trips they managed to beat Leicester (3:1), Sheffield United (3:0) and Newcastle (2:0) and also ended in a draw with Burnley (1:1) and Everton (3:3). In general, Arsenal are seventh in the Premier League in their away game. In 17 matches, Londoners achieved eight victories on fields of rivals, drew three times and lost six meetings. Due to injuries, defenders David Luis and Pablo Mari, midfielder Granit Jaka will not play in the match. Questionable are Emil Smith Rowe and Matthew Ryan. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
