Key Players To Watch
Antonio Griezmann – Atlético Madrid
A player who is ageing like a fine Spanish Wine, Greizzmann (33) has 19 goals and 7 assists from 39 matches in all competitions this season.
However, he offers much more than goal contributions, with his work ethic and defensive contribution paramount to his team too averaging 1.12 Tackles (87th percentile), 0.54 Interceptions (94th percentile) and 0.95 Blocks (86th percentile) for all forwards
Marco Reus – Dortmund
Dortmund are continually gutted for their top talent with the likes of Haaland and Bellingham departing in recent seasons. The one constant has been Dortmund born and bred who has been at the club since signing from Mönchengladbach in 2012 and rarely gets the credit he deserves for that.
Reus (34) might be getting on but remains a productive attacking threat with 7 Goals and 7 Assists from 32 Games this season. He is another who offers defensive protection with his 2.04 Tackles (92 nd Percentile), and 0.95 Clearance (89 th Percentile) for attacking midfielders and wingers.
Atlético Madrid v Dortmund Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Atlético Madrid 1-0 Dortmund
This match pits two sides who have had stronger squads and seasons previously, but with both drawn against one another this is a massive chance for either side to reach a Champions League Semi-Final at a minimum.
Atlético are always notorious for being difficult to break down and I can see them getting a hard-fought win here against a Dortmund team not blessed with chance-creating ability.
Best Bet: Atlético Madrid Win + Under 2.5 Goals @ 3/1
