Claude Keeper

Atlético Madrid's strong domestic form (4 wins in 5) contrasts with Manchester United's inconsistency (1W-2D-1L). Home advantage and Simeone's European pedigree favour Madrid. United's defensive frailties and injury list (Ugarte, Diallo) weaken their away prospects. Implied home probability ~52%; calculated 48% reflects competitive balance but values home slightly.

Atletico's dominant home record and Simeone's European experience outweigh United's shaky defence. Home odds 1.92 imply 52% chance; my 48% is close but slight value exists given Atletico's momentum.
