Atletico Madrid had a poor group stage of the Champions League last season which left them in the Europa League, they went on to win that competition, beating Marseille in the final, and now face a Real Madrid team who won the UEFA Champions League thanks to a couple of Karius mistakes and one of the best European final goals ever seen from Garetn Bale.

 

Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid Super Cup Predictions

With the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus in the summer, there will be more emphasis on Real Madrid this season, and can they cope without their former star man? Atletico Madrid did hold on to their prized asset in the summer – Antoine Greizmann returned from the World Cup a winner but he might not be fit enough to start after only playing 30 minutes in last weekend’s friendly against Inter Milan. We’re kicking-off our 2018 UEFA Super Cup betting tips with a both teams to score bet given that this match if often high scoring – five of the last six have seen both teams score.

We’ve already mentioned the two main attractions for an anytime goalscorer tip tonight, but our pick is going to be Gareth Bale. He has thrived on being the key man during the summer pre-season matches and has scored a couple of fantastic goals. With Ronaldo now gone, Bale will be expected to play a regular part and take some of the goalscoring burden from Karim Benzema. The odds for Bale to score look good at 7/4 so that’s the next of our Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid betting tips for tonight’s Super Cup.

The last selection we’re going for tonight is a correct score tip. The last two matches between these sides has ended a draw and three of the last five UEFA Super Cup matches have gone to extra time so we’re predicting a draw after 90 minutes tonight. The odds for a 1-1 draw are 11/2 with Bet Victor but we’re going to go for a 2-2 correct score to complete our Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid betting tips. Given this will still be treated as a pre-season match by the managers we could see a more open match than usual and goals could fly in.

The bookmakers have Real Madrid as slight favourites to win this match in the 90 minutes at 7/5 with Ladbrokes. The draw is 9/4, which would be our match result prediction, and Atletico Madrid’s odds to win are 2/1 at bet Bright. Atletico have taken Real Madrid to extra-time in two Champions League finals in the last four seasons and they will think they’re due a win over their rivals tonight.
