Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Following a thrilling 4-3 win over Getafe, Atletico Madrid will look to climb to the Champions League berth when they take on Levante in a postponed La Liga game. Los Rojiblancos have slim chances of defending their La Liga trophy, and, no doubt, the team’s main goal is to secure a top-four finish. Defender Felipe misses out through suspension, while Rodrigo de Paul should be recalled to the starting XI. Jose Gimenez is a major doubt following his recent positive test for coronavirus.
Los Levantinos, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in back-to-back defeats to Getafe (0-3) and Levante (2-4), and we do not believe that the rock-bottom side are going to grab something from the match. Roberto Soldado is banned for the match, while Ruben Vezo is unlikely to feature against Pablo Simeone’s troops after limping off with a muscle injury in the last league match.
Highlighted Player (Luis Suarez):
Luis Suarez is a controversial footballer who plays for La Liga side Barcelona as a striker. The Uruguayan forward moved to Europe in 2006, signing a deal with Groningen. After scoring 10 goals in 27 league appearances for the club in the 2006/2007 Eredivisie campaign, he joined Ajax at the end of the season. The prolific striker scored no less than 81 goals in 110 appearances for Ajax and, as a result, Liverpool chiefs decided to sign him on 31 January 2011.
Suarez became the club’s most expensive signing and he was producing thrilling performances with the Anfield outfit between 2011 and 2014. Liverpool were on the verge of winning the 2013/2014 Premier League trophy, but Steven Gerrard slipped in the decider against Chelsea and they eventually finished the season in second place in the standings.
In 2014 Suarez joined Barcelona and he was the top scorer in the 2015/2016 La Liga campaign. He won the 2013/2014 Premier League Golden Boot as well and in 2011 he clinched the Copa America trophy with Uruguay.
