Feyenoord v Atlético Madrid Prediction, Odds and Betting Tips

🏆 Feyenoord v Atlético Madrid UCL Prediction

These sides first did battle in the UEFA Champions League in gameweek two, when Atletico Madrid overcame Feyenoord 3-2 in a thrilling match at the Metropolitan Stadium. This game also saw a clash of two distinct and opposing styles, as Feyenoord looked to dominate possession and sustain attacks while Atletico remained in their defensive shape and play primarily on the counterattack.

I expect the same pattern to play out at De Kuip, especially as Feyenoord have averaged 56.0% possession across their four Group E matches so far (compared to 53.5% for Atletico). However, Atletico have been more efficient with the ball in this season’s Champions League, as 42.1% of their attempts on goal have been on target (compared to just 32.2% for their opponents).

Incredibly, Atletico are also outperforming their xG by a staggering +5.3 goals, having scored 12 times in their four group stages matches at a rate of 3.00 per game. Conversely, Feyenoord have underperformed their xG value of 7.5 by -1.5 goals, while their profligacy in front of goal cost them dear in the reverse fixture in October.

Atletico also boast the tournament’s most potent strike partnership, with Alvaro Morata (5) and Antoine Griezmann (4) contributing nine goals from a combined xG value of just 4.5. This pair also shared all three goals from just three shots on the target in the gameweek two victory, and this type of ruthlessness and accuracy in front of goal could make the difference once again in Rotterdam.

1️⃣ Feyenoord Update

While defending Eredivisie champions Feyenoord have won nine and lost just one of their 12 league games in 2023/24, they remain seven points behind runaway leaders PSV (who have a 100% record with 12 successive victories). When it comes to the UCL, they’ve produced convincing victories over Celtic and Lazio at De Kuip and lost twice on the road, while scoring seven goals and conceding on five occasions. A defeat against Atletico would eliminate them from the competition if Lazio also beat Celtic in Rome, so they’ll need to execute their attacking gameplan well and successfully nullify their opponents’ strength in transition.

A couple of Feyenoord players have picked up injuries during the recent international break, namely Lutsharel Geertruida (unknown injury) and Alireza Jahanbakhsh (hamstring). Young right winger Yankuba Minteh also remains a doubt with his own hamstring strain, although he may be fit again in time for the visit of Atletico.

2️⃣ Atletico Madrid Update

While Atletico Madrid are fourth in La Liga, they have a game in hand over their rivals and would move above third place Barcelona with a win. In all competitions, Diego Simeone’s men have contested 16 matches and earned 11 wins, while incurring only two defeats and scoring 41 goals at a rate of 2.56 per game. More recently, they’ve only lost one of their last 12 matches in La Liga and the Champions League, while they’re unbeaten on the road in this season’s UCL after drawing at Lazio and Celtic. The side’s 6-0 thrashing of Celtic also showcased their ruthless edge, with the team’s goals-per-shots ratio of 0.21 the best in the competition through 2023/24.

Atletico remain without long-term absentees in the form of left back Reinildo Mandava (cruciate ligament tear) and winger Vitolo (knee). French forward Thomas Lemar is also ruled out as he continues his recovery from an Achilles tendon rupture, while Memphis Depay remains a huge doubt with a muscle injury too.
