Atlético de Madrid reached the Copa del Rey final but ultimately lost to Real Sociedad. While fans blame Cholo Simeone and the players, the Colchoneros must concentrate on their upcoming match against Elche on Wednesday for Matchday 33 of La Liga.
Elche managed to defeat Valencia with a goal from Cepeda; they remain in the relegation zone in a fierce battle that includes Elche, as well as Rayo Vallecano, Mallorca, Valencia, Sevilla, and Alavés. Although Elche has been the worst away team in La Liga—the main reason they are currently in the relegation zone—they have been quite competitive playing at the Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero, winning several matches despite not being the favorites.
This match comes three days before Atlético de Madrid faces Athletic Club in Madrid, just before their Champions League semi-final clash against Arsenal. Atleti has a comfortable cushion in the league to secure fourth place and a spot in next season's Champions League. This match won't be as crucial for them as it will be for Elche.

Our Elche vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
Atlético's season is once again facing its historical pattern of fading in the final stretch of the season and ending up empty-handed. Since their 1-0 win against Getafe on March 14th, they have only won 1 of their next 7 matches, a period that included a 2-1 defeat against Sevilla in La Liga at the Sánchez Pizjuán.
It's a good opportunity for Elche to pick up points against a reeling Atlético side focused on their Champions League semi-final against Arsenal. In that sense, Luis Cepeda could very well be Elche's key to scoring, as he scored 8 of his last 9 goals at the Martínez Valero stadium.
Our prediction for Elche vs Atlético de Madrid es: Elche to win or draw.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
