RB Salzburg vs Atlético Madrid Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
The Spanish side still need to find a point or more to secure automatic qualification.
The UEFA Champions League (UCL) is all set to unveil the final chapter of its group stage fixtures with 18 matches scheduled to be played parallelly. RB Salzburg will take on a high flying Atlético Madrid side in their final matchday and will hope to put up a strong fight for pride. They are already eliminated and cannot go any further into the competition. The Red Bulls have accumulated just three points in seven games and find themselves in the 34th position.
Atlético on the contrary have been one of the best and most dominating teams in Europe this season. They have fired on all cylinders and are very likely to make it to the RO16. Diego Simeone’s men have won all of their last four Champions League games and currently occupy the fifth position with 15 points. They will want to win this game and avoid any unexpected circumstances to hamper their qualification chances.
