Why Bet on Atlético Madrid?
Despite struggling to establish a consistent performance in the 2023/24 season, Atletico Madrid is a formidable and highly cohesive club, and coach Cholo Simeone has kept them competitive in the top four.
Atleti currently occupies fourth place in the standings with 13 wins, two draws, and five losses, with 40 goals scored and 23 conceded. It is worth mentioning that the team still has a chance to fight for first place, as it is only three points behind Barcelona and ten points behind Real Madrid in second place.
As of this moment, the ‘Colchoneros’ must continue to play with a strong rhythm if they hope to finish in the top four. They must also remember that Athletic Club is chasing them closely, and a loss could push them back to fifth place.
Atletico Madrid is coming off a 1-0 win over Granada.
Why Bet on Valencia?
For their part, Valencia will make an effort to keep winning and compete for European places. Right now, the team is playing at a remarkable level and is motivated after winning four LaLiga games in a row.
Valencia currently sits 7th in the standings, with a record of nine wins, five draws, and seven losses, 27 goals scored and 24 goals conceded. They come into this match going five games unbeaten, so their drive and confidence are impressive.
Similarly, it is worth noting that the ‘Che’ is just 3 points behind Real Sociedad in sixth place in the table, so this match becomes much more important for them in their quest to get into European places. However, the club has performed admirably in recent weeks and will soon have a chance to compete in Europe.
Valencia recently beat Athletic Bilbao 1-0.
