<p>The second leg is scheduled for Thursday, March 19, with kick-off at 07:00 AEDT.</p><h2>Quick Picks</h2><p><strong>Our pick:</strong> Tottenham to win</p><p><strong>Value bet:</strong> 'Yes' in the BTTS</p><p><strong>Long shot:</strong> 'Over 3.5 goals'</p><h2>Betting Preview</h2><p>It's been a hugely challenging time for Spurs over the last few months, with wins at home having been extremely rare. The last time they won at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was in the UCL, when they defeated Borussia Dortmund 2-0.</p><p>Still, they need a bigger goal margin than that this time around against an arguably much better side. The Spaniards had been given a number of gifts in the first leg, with the headline being around the decision to withdraw Antonín Kinský within the first 16 minutes after costly mistakes saw the English side go 3-0 down.</p><p>Goals from Marcos Llorente, Antoine Griezmann, a brace from Julian Alvarez, and Robin Le Normand were enough for Los Rojiblancos, with Pedro Porro and Dominic Solanke getting nothing more than consolations in a one-sided contest.</p><p>It was a relatively even game in terms of match statistics. Atletico had 11 shots compared to Spurs' 9. Seven of the Spanish club's were on target, whereas the English side had four. The Spaniards had more of the ball, controlling the game with 61% possession.</p><h2>Betting Markets to Watch</h2><p>Spurs are going to need a miraculous turn of fortunes when they take on Atletico; still, there may be something that they can take confidence from regarding the Spanish side's previous trips to England.</p><p>Atletico have already been to England twice this season and lost both games. They were beaten by Liverpool in MW1 (3-2) and by Arsenal in MW3 (4-0). They accounted for the two defeats they experienced away from home, while they had one defeat when playing at home.</p><p>Spurs won each of their four home games in the UCL Group Phase. They managed to score 10 goals across those four games and kept four clean sheets. This does mean there is <strong>value in them to win the game</strong>, although we wouldn't expect them to win by three clear goals and go through.

The 'Both Teams to Score' market has hit in each of Atlético Madrid's last eight Champions League matches.</p><h2>Our Prediction</h2><p>Check the latest <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer/uefa-competitions/uefa-champions-league/tottenham-v-atletico-madrid-10248333">Tottenham vs Atletico Madrid betting odds</a> at Sportsbet.</p><p>A <strong>Tottenham win offers value</strong>, given that they've been strong at home in the UCL this season, while Atletico Madrid haven't travelled well when going to England this season. Both clubs have featured prominently in <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/huddle/epl/predictions">Premier League predictions</a> and La Liga discussions throughout the campaign.</p><p>Goals can be expected, with our long shot being the '<strong>Over 3.5 goals</strong>' market. Spurs know they have to come out and attack from the beginning, while Atletico will use that to hit them on the break. With mistakes potentially occurring on the field, there's value in this bet in our opinion.
