Barcelona take on Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter finals on Tuesday in this Spanish clash. The game will be available to watch through BT Sport Extra and it could play a pivotal role in both teams hunt for silverware this season.

 

Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid Predictions

 

Barcelona have only taken one point from the last two games in La Liga but it won’t be too much of a worry for Luis Enrique. Despite dropping the points, they still sit six points clear of tonight’s opposition Atletico who will also be looking to take at least one of the trophies that both the teams are still competing for.

 

Atletico can be confident going into this clash, they are a solid away side who do well on the road and Diego Simeone likes to keep it tight in defence and pinch a goal or two to secure the win. With the form of Antoine Griezmann, Atletico will want to challenge Barca’s leaky defence and look for a important away goal or two.

 

With Simeone’s defensive tactics I can see this one being a low scoring game for my football betting tips. He would be more than happy to go back for the second leg with a 0-0 draw hoping to expose Barca’s ever struggling defence. However, keeping MSN out is a different challenge in itself and the Atletico manager will definitely of accounted that.

 

My first Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid prediction is going to be under 2.5 goals in the game. Although many will think Messi, Suarez and Neymar will probably all score a goal each, I think Atletico will be prepared. The best price for this is currently 9/10 with Marathon Bet.

 

Despite praising Atletico’s defence, keeping Barca out is a different task all together and it’s hard to see them going three games without a win. I do think they will be solid at the back, but it will just be a matter of time before Barca break through, even if it is late in the game.

 

My second Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid prediction is going to be half time/full time- draw/Barcelona. 0-0 at half time wouldn’t be a surprise to many but Barca will definitely want to head over to Estadio Vicente Calderón for the second leg with the advantage. The best price is a very tempting 17/5 with Bet Victor.

Barcelona are massive favourites for the game and are as short as 1/2 with some bookies. As I mentioned earlier, I can’t see Barca not winning another game especially when it’s such an important one. My last tip will offer a bit more value on top of the win at 1/2.

My final Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid betting tip is going to be for Barca to win and under 3.5 goals. I can’t see Atletico leaking 3+ goals but I also can’t see them breaking Barca down that often with the little amount of possession that they will have. This offers a slightly better price of 21/20 with Stan James.
