Comfortable lead for Real
Real Madrid got a very comfortable win during the 1st leg against Atalanta (0-1) after a doubtful first-half red card of Remo Freuler. Tonight Real will face the fierce opposition of Atalanta – a team that was eliminated in the very last seconds last year by PSG. The good news is that Sergio Ramos is in the squad and will help the Whites to continue to the quarter-finals.
Atalanta has nothing to lose
Atalanta should score a goal or two in order to increase their chances to qualify for the next round of the Knock-out phase of the Champions League. The team gained valuable experience after their participation in the tournament last year and tonight is ready to oppose Real Madrid. With the exception of Remo Freuler, there are not any missing or suspended players.
Final thoughts
We are expecting to see an open game despite the importance of the match. Atalanta has nothing to lose and will try to score at least one goal. We think that there are premises to see more than two goals, so we are backing the OVER as our primary prediction.
