Atletico Madrid vs. Levante - Free Soccer Pick

Atletico Madrid welcomes the team of Levante at the first for the new year 2015 round in the Spanish La Liga. The match will be played at the Stadium ‘Vicente Calderon’ on 03^rd  January 2015 at 17:00 CET and will be broadcast live stream at most of the major bookmakers. Atletico Madrid is currently occupying the third place before the start of that round. The team is on the 17^th place in the League, and its rival Levante is on the 15^th place.

Atletico Madrid will seek a mandatory victory over ‘Las granotas’, which for the moment will be catch up on points with Barcelona and the second one will be at only one point of difference from the leader in the provisional rankings – Real Madrid.

The victory of Atletico Madrid is expected by the bookmakers and the odd for the three points for that team is around 1.20, while Levante's victory was evaluated by an odd more than 15.00.

In the last round before the New Year, the managed by Diego Simeone team finished with a strong victory over Atletico Bilbao with 1:4 as a guest, which bought a little guilt in front of fans for the past defeat at home by Villarreal. ‘Yellow submarine’ was a team who only managed to get the three points from Atletico to Vicente Calderon with minimum of 0:1 in December.

Fully officially, the striker Fernando Torres returned in the ranks of Atletico de Madrid now. He failed to even train with the first team, but for the derby against Levante, he is not ready and Simeone will not let him play. Overall, the team has serious personnel problems and only the injured Miranda will be out of the game.

Levante is one of the teams that will be battling for survival in the current season. The team is on the 15^th position, but has a little more points than the first team in the danger zone. After the final victory over Valencia at the end of November 2014,  Levante has had three draws and one loss.There are some problems in defense, because Hector Rodas and Victor Kamarasa will not play. Atletico Madrid will hardly miss the chance for getting easy three points and will hardly achieve second consecutive defeat at home.

The soccer prediction, specially prepared byTopSoccerPredictions.Com is -1.5 (Asian Handicap). In case you prefer the standard betting, then it would be 1.
