Predicted outcome and suggested bets for the football match between Atletico Madrid and Lazio on 13/12/2023.

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

We anticipate the outcome of this Champions League game to be as follows:

Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid

Lazio

Lazio

The top spot in Group E will be determined on Wednesday evening as Atletico Madrid and Lazio face off at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano. Currently, Atletico Madrid is in first place and only needs one more point to secure their position. Manager Diego Simeone is likely to rotate the squad, bringing back Jose Gimenez, Memphis Depay, and Saul Niguez while Pablo Barrios and Thomas Lemar remain sidelined due to injuries.

The Lazio team, however, secured their place in the Champions League round of 16 after defeating Celtic 2-0. However, defeating Atletico in their home city of Madrid is not an easy task. It is expected to be a close game and after considering all factors, we believe that there is a high chance of a draw. Matias Vecino returns from suspension, but Patric, Gustav Isaksen, and Alessio Romagnoli are all injured for the visiting team.

The game is scheduled for December 13, 2023 at 9:00 PM.

Prediction:
1-1

Player in focus (Antoine Griezmann):

Antoine Griezmann

Anthony Griezmann, born on March 21st, 1991 in Macon, is considered one of Europe’s most exhilarating footballers currently. He displayed his talent early on in his career after joining Real Sociedad’s youth academy and went on to score 46 goals in 179 league matches for La Real. His impressive performances in the Spanish La Liga caught the attention of several top clubs, but he ultimately decided to sign with Atletico Madrid, which turned out to be a wise choice.

Griezmann maintained his strong performance at the Vicente Calderon, scoring crucial goals as los Colchoneros achieved success in both domestic and European competitions. He also played a significant role for the France national team.

Griezmann is a skilled player who can play as a winger or second striker. He is known for his technical abilities and is also a proficient scorer. Despite this, he still puts in effort to support his team, making him highly respected as one of the top forwards in Europe. He has already achieved success with the French U19 team and is expected to continue his success at the senior level with Les Bleus.
