Atletico Madrid to continue fine form against Real Valladolid
2635

On Saturday evening Atletico Madrid will be looking to continue their strong recent form when they host struggling Real Valladolid at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Diego Simeone’s team heads into this clash on the back of a midweek 1-1 Champions League draw against Bayern Munich. The draw keeps the home side in a decent position to qualify for the knockout stages of Europe’s elite competition.

However, Atletico do still need to pick up a draw at Salzburg on gameweek six to make it through to the last 16 of the competition.

Los Colchoneros’ position in La Liga is a strong one though, as they are second in the table, a point behind league leaders Real Sociedad with two games in hand on La Real. Atletico are now considered by many as the favourites to win the Spanish title this season.

The home side is unbeaten in 25 La Liga matches dating back to February. They have also recorded six straight league wins while keeping five clean sheets in the process. Incredibly, Atletico have conceded just two goals this season in La Liga.

Despite heading into this clash 17th place in the Spanish top-flight table, Real Valladolid head into this clash on the back of a three-game unbeaten run. Last time out the visitors drew 1-1 at home against Levante.

Real Valladolid have a poor recent away record in the Spanish top-flight, as they have won just once in their previous nine matches on their travels while suffering six defeats in the process.

However, a 3-1 win at Granada in their last away match ended an eight-game winless run on their travels for the visitors.

Valladolid have a poor recent record against Atletico, having suffered defeat in nine of the last ten meetings with the home side.

Forebet predicts that Atletico will record a victory in a high-scoring game to continue their charge for the Spanish title.
