- Competition: La Liga
- Date: Sunday, 18th May 2025
- Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19:00 CEST
- Venue: Metropolitano Stadium (Madrid)
Atletico Madrid have another solid season. They weren't good enough to stay in the title race with Barcelona, but Diego Simeone's team will likely finish in the top three and play in the Champions League next season. However, Atletico Madrid hasn't played well lately as they have won only two of the last five matches. In the previous game, they lost 2-0 on the road against Osasuna. The guests surely deserved more from that match as they finished with xG of 1.28, while the home side had only 0.59, but efficiency was a serious issue for Simeone's team.
For most of the season, Betis hoped to sneak into the Champions League positions, but with only two rounds left and five points fewer than Villarreal, Manuel Pellegrini's team seems on route to playing in the Europa League next season. Betis have played well lately, with only one defeat in the last eight matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they played 2-2 on the road against Rayo Vallecano.
Atletico Madrid vs Betis pick: Over 2.5 goals
Atletico Madrid scored 11 goals in the last three home matches. On the other hand, there were at least three goals in six of the previous seven Betis games. We should see another high-scoring game on Sunday evening at Metropolitano Stadium.

Atletico Madrid team news
After a defeat against Osasuna, Atletico Madrid's head coach was self-critical. He said, "I think we played better today than we did against Alaves and Las Palmas, but it's clear the coach isn't finding a way to inspire the players to perform at their best away from home."
Pablo Barrios is questionable and his status will be clearer closer to the kickoff. The rest of the Atletico Madrid team should be available for Sunday.
