On January 28 2018 at 15:15 in the upcoming match of the Spanish national elite division La Liga 21st game week at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano the local Atletico Madrid are playing against Las Palmas.

It’s just the middle of the season and Atletico no longer have any chances to win the champions League, Spanish Copa del Rey or the national championship. It’s obviously a rather difficult situation for the manager and he will be trying very hard to keep the second position in the table of the Primera. They will have to compete against Valencia and Real Madrid for it. And to achieve it they need to be able to outplay the teams like Las Palmas, in fact. Moreover, they have a lot of stronger teams to play against soon. For example, they will be playing against Valencia, Athletic and Sevilla in February and against Barcelona at the beginning of March. In those games they can actually lose points so they shouldn’t do it playing against Las Palmas.

In the first round of the national championship Atletico didn’t lose a single point in the matches against the teams situated lower than on the 14th position in the standings. They won 6 times with a convincing 15:2 goal difference. Of course, Atletico mostly prefer winning with just one goal difference and yet in the matches against the outsiders they sometimes score a lot.

As for Las Palmas, their results are really far from perfect. They lost eight of their ten away matches already played this season as they only gained points playing against Sociedad and Malaga from the second half of the table. As for the teams from the first half of the table, they lost seven times in a row to them with 0:20 goal difference.

All of the facts we have already mentioned actually make us think that the hosts are very likely to win with a convincing score.
