Atletico missed several chances to take the lead themselves, but German international Ter Stegen's incredible reaction saves - first from Hermoso's close-range shot and then Morata's header - kept Diego Simeone's side out.

Last six matches at Diriangen against Juventus Managua were 50% over and 50% under. The last one came up 1 x 0 to Diriangen and it was a tight one. Doing the math for the last 36(season - apertura and clausura) matches general, we get fair odds for the under 2.5 goal being at 1.63. So I guess it's fair to say that the under 2.5 goals has plenty of value at this price of 1.85. Plus, I can see this match being a cautious one with both teams not wanting to concede any goals at all. I will place 10 units on under 2.5

PEC Zwolle welcomes Fortuna Sittard in Nederland Eredivisie round 14.

Today, in the Primera Liga will be played the match Leganes vs Real Valladolid. At the moment, in the Primera Liga ranking, Leganes is number 19 with 23 points, and Real Valladolid is number 15 with 29 points.

My message would be to the management of Newcastle United and to the decision makers. We should consider ethical values, not just financial or political ones.

In previous game Isloch 2 lost 2-3 against Smolevichi 2. I think, the visitors will closer to victory.
