Real Valladolid vs Atletico Madrid Prediction and Betting Tips | November 30th 2024

Real Valladolid will entertain Atletico Madrid at Estadio José Zorrilla in La Liga on Saturday. Valladolid have endured a poor run of form in their return to the top flight and are at the bottom of the league table. Atletico have eight wins in 14 games and are in third place in the standings.

The hosts are winless in their last four league outings, suffering three losses. They played Getafe in their first league game back since the international break last week and fell to a 2-0 away loss. After a goalless first half, Getafe scored twice in three minutes after the break to secure a win.

The visitors extended their winning streak across all competitions on Tuesday with a commanding 6-0 away win over Sparta Prague in the UEFA Champions League. Julián Alvarez and Ángel Correa bagged braces while Marcos Llorente had a goal and two assists.

They secured a comeback 2-1 home win over Deportivo Alaves in La Liga last week thanks to second-half goals from Antoine Griezmann and Alexander Sørloth.

Real Valladolid vs Atletico Madrid Prediction

Pucelanos have just one win in their last five games in all competitions, with that triumph coming in their away game in the Copa del Rey. They are winless at home in La Liga this season since their campaign opener in August. They are winless at home against Atletico since 2008.

They have a clean bill of health for this match and Selim Amallah is the only doubt for manager Paulo Pezzolano due to personal reasons.

Colchoneros head into the match in great form, recording six consecutive wins while keeping four clean sheets. Atletico have scored 14 goals in their last four meetings against the hosts and are strong favorites.

Diego Simeone will be without the services of Thomas Lemar, who is a long-term absentee. Nahuel Molina is also likely to miss this match and Robin Le Normand is a doubt.

Atletico have been the dominant side in this fixture and have the better goalscoring record this season. They should be able to record a comfortable win.
