Marseille vs Atletico de Madrid Europa League 16 May 2018

Marseille vs Atletico de Madrid – Europa League Prediction

If we look at the start of the season, I think it could be seen as likely that a French team would reach the final of the Europa League this year

Due to the final being played in Lyon. However, it was the other Olympique whose goal, clear and defined, to reach this stage of the race.

On the other hand, having a Spanish team in a European final is somewhat of a habit.

The surprise of this season is to see that Atletico Madrid were not able to enter the lot of the last 16 of the Champions League, imposing on their law in the second European competition in terms of importance.

For Marseille, this is a successful season that needs to be confirmed this past week.

One of two things: either Marseille can win the Europa League, or they will have to be able to finish on the Ligue 1 podium, which they will have to play next Saturday at home against Amiens.
In the Europa League, the team surpassed the group stage, along with FC Salzburg, who would meet again and defeat in the semi-finals.

By the way, eliminated Braga, Athletic Bilbao and RB Leipzig, in a constant overcoming against teams of great quality.

Atletico Madrid already have the presence in the Champions League assured, finishing in second or third place in La Liga.

He was disappointed to be out of the group stage, where he was beaten by AS Roma and Chelsea, but in the Europa League he always showed superiority against his opponents:

FC Copenhagen, Lokomotiv Moscow, Sporting and Arsenal.

Prediction Marseille vs Atletico de Madrid:

Looking at the forces of the groups in contention, Athletic is seen as a natural favorite, although the quality of the offensive game of Marseille imposes respect.

An interesting game without having a clear early winner.
