Atletico Madrid vs Club Brugge Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 02/24/26

Atletico Madrid were given an almighty scare in Belgium last week but Diego Simeone’s side should be able to see off an exciting but relatively youthful Club Brugge at the Metropolitano on Tuesday. The Colchoneros probably thought they had the tie in the bag when they went 2-0 up at Jan Breydel Stadium, but Brugge refused to lie down and battled back to level twice in a thrilling 3-3 draw.

Ivan Leko’s team has a sprinkling of top-level European experience running through their side, but the stars of the first-leg show were 24-year-old midfielder Raphael Onyedika, 21-year-old striker Nicolo Tresoldi and 20-year-old winger Mamadou Diakhon.  Onyedika is suspended for this trip to Madrid after collecting 1 yellow card too many, but Simeone should have all his top players primed for this return clash.

Atleti beat Espanyol 4-2 in La Liga at the weekend, with Ademola Lookman and Alexander Sorloth on the scoresheet, who both also impressed in Belgium. It was the 2nd straight home game where they had bagged a quartet of goals after their recent Copa del Rey mauling of Barcelona. Barca should have scored in that game, but the result speaks for itself and leads to the conclusion that Simeone’s team takes a “we’ll score more than you” approach these days. Back the hosts to win with at least 5 goals in the game.
