Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol Prediction & Picks - LaLiga
by Carlos Zabala | in LaLiga Picks
With a great performance from Llorente and a very good game from Griezman and Koke, Atletico Madrid won their first La Liga victory, in preparation for a Liga fixture that will be more difficult at the weekend when they have to face Athletic Club and Valencia in a row. In the midweek match, they face a more than affordable opponent, Espanyol, and Atletico will be the favorite to win it with odds of up to -344.
Atletico made a very good investment, for many the best in recent years in the summer transfer market. They reinforced all the lines in defense, bringing in Le Normand, Gallagher in midfield, and Alavarez from Manchester City and Sorloth in attack.
Espayol, who spent only one season in the second division, are now beginning to look like favourites to be relegated again, especially since Real Valladolid and Leganes have already managed to score points and they have not. The team was undoubtedly weighed down by the departure of Braithwaite, who left for Brazilian football when his contract ended.
Braithwaite had been the team's top scorer in the season in which they returned to the first division, but now without him Espayol is the only team in La Liga that has not scored a goal yet.
