Daily Dynamo Selections – Atletico Madrid v Elche

Betting Tips, Dynamo Bet, La Liga | Article posted on April 17th, 2025

Atletico Madrid can steal a march on Real Madrid and Barcelona in their La Liga title bid when strugglers Elche visit on Friday. There is no doubt that Atletico are the form side in La Liga; Diego Simeone’s charges boast an 11-game unbeaten run that has seen them move three points clear at the Spanish top flight’s summit. Additionally, they have eliminated floundering Barcelona from the Champions League, and could yet end the season with two major trophies that no-one would have expected them to secure at the start of the season.

This fixture gives Atletico an opportunity to extend their lead to six points in the first of five remaining, which coach Diego Simeone has described as “finals”. Atletico, who are expected to have leading goalscorer Diego Costa available for selection despite suffering a gashed knee during Sunday’s win over Getafe, have won their last seven league games and will be heavy favourites to bolster their title ambitions against an Elche side who will have one eye on the relegation battle beneath them.

Elche are well-placed to avoid an immediate return to the second tier, but one wouldn't expect them to put up too much of a fight against a team with the sort of quality and confidence that Aleti possess at present. It's hard to bet against the home side given the outstanding and ruthless football that they've produced recently.
