Atletico Madrid are getting the significantly shorter odds from the bookmakers and they go into the match up with an odds-on price to emerge as the victors following ninety minutes of play.
Punters will find Atletico trading at a 1.85 price according to most major bookmakers while Chelsea are rewarding at a high quality price of 4.8. You’ll also find the draw trading at a 3.3 price and that’s interesting because you get the feeling that both teams would probably take a draw at this point - particularly a lower scoring one as Chelsea will be fancying themselves at home and Atletico likely think they can dispose of the Blues anywhere they like.
This is especially interesting because the odds are fairly tight in terms of who is expected to qualify through to the final - and again you’ll find that Atletico Madrid are getting the slim edge from the bookmakers with a 1.72 price tag ahead of Chelsea’s 2.1 odds.
Who’s going to actually open the scoring remains interesting but Diego Costa is considering to be the outright choice to get things rolling with a 5.0 price in teh first goalscorer market. Both Raul Garcia and David Villa are trading at 8.0 prices while Adrian Lopez and Demba Ba are just behind them at a 9.0 listing with a drop in price likely on Ba if he is listed to start.
Eden Hazard is one to definitely keep your eye on and he’s a tidy 10.0 to grab the opener - something that would definitely be a major coup for Chelsea in the context of the two-legged tie. The away goal is absolutely huge here.
Andre Schurrle has been impactful as of late for Chelsea and he’s also at a 10.0 price with Fernando Torres - who generally starts to make his presence felt in the season right around now so start keeping your eye on him for big goals in their remaining games. Oscar is available at 12.0 while Jorge Resurrecion Koke is 13.0 shot. The always-lively Willian is priced at 17.0.
