Atletico Madrid vs. Arsenal Odds
Game Preview
Atletico Madrid is all-in on the Champions League. They have nothing to compete for in La Liga, as they have secured the UCL spot next year. That’s why all of their attention is set on this semifinal matchup.
It’s interesting to say that one of the most tactical teams in Europe plays efficient matches at home. The last 4 have seen both sides netting and over 2.5 goals.

Meanwhile, Arsenal managed to gain some confidence ahead of this event with a 1-0 win over Newcastle. They weren’t better, and the crisis is still present, but at least they won.
This was only the second triumph for the Gunners in their past 7 appearances. Looking at their away games, only one of the previous 5 didn’t end within 2 or 3 goals.
Atletico Madrid vs. Arsenal Head to Head
The way Arsenal smashed Atletico in the UCL league stage at the Emirates was impressive. It was 4-0 for the hosts, who completely dominated that event.
Atletico Madrid vs. Arsenal Predictions
We’ve mentioned the word “tactics” several times here. That’s the main reason why we won’t see too many goals in this one, but two at most. A high-stakes game between two cautious coaches means under 2.5 hits
Free UCL Pick: Under 2.5 goals
