Atletico Madrid stumbled as guests against Levante in the last round with a goalless draw. However, on Thursday, they dismantled Betis in the cup tournament, winning 5-0 away. The new signing Ademola Lookman made a strong debut, scoring a goal and assisting another. The five goals came from five different players. This is good, as Sörloth is injured and may remain sidelined again, while Alvarez has not been in form lately. However, Pablo Barrios got injured and will be absent now. At home, Atletico is almost flawless, having won ten out of their eleven home matches in La Liga.
Betis is in fifth place and will try to respond to the heavy loss during the week. They were recently unbeaten as guests in La Liga, but now they have not won in four consecutive away games across all competitions, losing three of them. One of their away losses in the league was to Real Madrid, while the other came from Alaves with a score of 1-2 in their last away match.
Prediction: Atletico winAtletico Madrid convincingly defeated Betis away during the week. Now, it's unlikely they will win by such a margin again, but traditionally they perform very strongly at home, and I expect them to celebrate a new victory in the end.
