Last week Atletico started in the Spanish Cup, where they left no chances on the road for the modest Rayo Mahadaone (5:0). The Indians successfully played the group round in the Champions League, where the team beat Porto in a decisive game (3:1), which eventually brought the team to the second position. The reigning champion of Spain has lost control of the first position. In the current championship “mattress makers” miss a lot, which is already reflected in the results. Madrid produced a streak of four defeats in a row, which no one expected from the team. Following the fiasco in a duel with Sevilla (1:2) and Granada (1:2), the red-whites defeated Rayo Vallecano (2:0) and on January 9th they shared the tournament points with Villarreal (2:2). To date, Diego Simeone’s charges have gained 33 points and are in fourth position. Savic and Griezmann, who has a thigh injury, will not be able to enter the pitch today.
For Fiorentina the season did not start very well. Vincenzo Italiano’s team regularly lost points and seemed to be stuck in the middle of the table for a long time. However, the violets were able to get in shape in time and get involved in the struggle for a ticket to the European cups. At the moment the Florentines are in sixth place in the table, being ahead of Roma and Lazio due to additional indicators. The gap could have been more comfortable, but lately the violets have gotten into a small crisis. The unsuccessful streak started in the 18th round, where Fiorentina barely snatched a 2:2 draw from Sassuolo. Then the violets shared the points with Verona (1:1), again being able to recoup. In the last round Fiorentina lost a crushing 0:4 defeat to Torino, extending the streak without wins to three matches. More expert football prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
