Chelsea vs Atl. Madrid prediction (1x2)

Both teams have struggled in all competitions at the start of the campaign, but they found fluidity in recent weeks. Since the defeat at Roma by a 3-0 margin on matchday 4 of the Champions League, Chelsea are unbeaten in 6 games with wins in 5 since then, keeping 4 clean sheets in the process. The form of Eden Hazard is excellent, while Alvaro Morata has also started to repay the faith shown by Conte. Hazard and Morata scored 8 of the 14 goals the team scored during the period. Meanwhile, Atletico’s 2-0 win against Roma on matchday 5 served as a confidence booster that turned their fortunes. The team won another three games on the bounce since then. Scoring goals has been the problem for this team, but things have changed with the team netting 12 times in the last four matches. The biggest boost to Simeone is a rejuvenated Antoine Griezmann who scored 5 goals in his last appearances, after firing blanks in previous 8 matches in all competitions. So, punters must expect a fairly open game on Tuesday with both teams looking good in all fronts. We can bank on goals as Atletico will attack as they have little choice which indeed give the Blues enough opportunities on the break.
