Atletico Madrid and Lazio are two of the 11 teams that already qualified for the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League. However, the winner of Wednesday’s clash in Madrid will advance as first place from Group E. Let’s check the best soccer bets today for this match.
Atletico Madrid Flawless at Home
Atletico Madrid has played and won 10 games at home, scoring at least two goals in nine of those matches, including a 3-1 victory over Real Madrid. This makes Atletico the only team that has beaten Real Madrid this season.
Most recently, they defeated Almeria 2-1, with Alvaro Morata and Angel Correa as the scorers. The defense took over with goalkeeper Jan Oblak as Player of the Match.
But I know you’re here for the goals so let’s talk about goals. So far, Morata has scored 15 goals in all competitions, including five in the UCL. Antoine Griezmann has scored 13 goals, including four in the continental tourney.
Atletico Madrid won their previous two UCL home games with a 9-2 aggregate against Feyenoord and Celtic.
All things considered, Atletico is offering a great price in our sportsbook to win straight up.
Lazio: Feisty Underdog
Last weekend, Lazio drew 1-1 to Hellas Verona in the Italian Serie A.
Don’t get me wrong, Lazio is still worth a look as a soccer betting underdog, and I have proof. Regarding the UCL, they defeated Celtic on the road. They did the same in the Serie A against Napoli, the reigning champions.
The Italian side has only conceded two goals in the continental tournament while Ciro Immobile remains the team’s top scorer with seven goals. He’s your guy for an anytime goalscorer Champions League player prop bet.
Lazio scored in four of their last five road games, and you can expect a good fight from the visitors.
First Leg Finished With Draw
Lazio played host to Atletico Madrid in September and drew 1-1 with one of the craziest endings in recent times. The Italian side managed to even the score thanks to Ivan Provedel, the goalkeeper, who scored in the 95th minute.

You can expect another close game on Wednesday with two teams that favor the counterattack. Nevertheless, I think you should include the over in your betting online ticket. There’s a lot on the line and the total is only set at 2½ goals.
