Competition: La Liga
Market: Atletico Madrid win
Odds: 4/7 @ BetUS
Atletico Madrid will be looking to continue their impressive form when they face Real Valladolid at the Estadio Jose Zorrilla on Saturday night.
Starting with the hosts, Real Valladolid are fighting to stay in the top-flight after their return to La Liga this season. However, they have struggled and find themselves at the bottom of the table. After a disappointing 2-0 loss to Getafe following the international break, Paulo Pezzolano’s side are considered strong candidates for relegation. They have only managed to collect nine points from their first 14 league games this season. Valladolid have also struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only one goal in the past month. Their record against Atletico Madrid is also concerning, having lost their last five meetings by a combined score of 13-3, including a 5-2 defeat in April 2023.
On the other hand, Atletico Madrid have bounced back from a rough patch and are in sensational form. They made a statement in the Champions League with a dominant 6-0 victory over Sparta Prague. The team’s morale is high and they are determined to make up ground in the title race. They have won their last six games in all competitions, including a notable 2-1 win against PSG. With just two goals conceded during their winning streak, Atletico will see this match as a golden opportunity. They have also been victorious in their last three La Liga matches, outscoring their opponents 5-1. It’s no surprise that Diego Simeone’s side are considered strong contenders in this matchup.
