I don't know if it caught your attention, but Atletico Madrid is playing more offensive football this year. In the past years, they would score a goal and then try to keep the score and play defensively focused football. We are watching a completely different Atletico Madrid this season. Their matches are over 2.5 goals. Especially Griezman and Morata bear the burden of scoring goals and they are in good form at the moment. Morata scored again in the match played yesterday. If I place a bet from now on, I will also bet on Atletico Madrid matches. I don't know if they will win their matches, but I will play for over 2.5 goals and pass.
I don't think it's anything new when a team has won quickly at half-time, then they are free to apply the next strategy to keep playing attacking or choose to defend at least to maintain stamina. So ya, I personally don't care about the strategy applied like that because anyway, basically the priority for them is to succeed in getting three points, and not prioritize continuing to attack or defend . But indeed, if I consider the opponent Atletico faced in the match was Alaves, then of course we would also expect a victory with a better score. But at least I quite satisfied, because I only bet on Atletico winning, and for me it's still good too.
Atletico Madrid has been playing pretty attacking football currently. And I have to say it has been working for them. They are performing far better compared to what they generally do at the start of the season. If I am not wrong, I do not think they are actually at the top of the table when the season starts. But this season they have been doing well. And if you look at the performance from them, they do not have a single loss in the last five matches. That is, I have to say great performance from them. It seems like they might be actually performing consistently enough in this season, throughout the season. But I still think that the final fight is going to be between Barcelona and Real Madrid.
