LiontipsRayo Vallecano vs. Atletico. Betting Tip (odds 2.60) and bets on the match of the Spanish championship
Command Analysis
Current form
It has been a mixed La Liga campaign so far for Rayo Vallecano, although they are set to welcome Atletico Madrid on the back of an impressive 3-1 home win over Osasuna. With this second game in a row at Vallecas, they will be hoping for another positive result, especially as it would mean two consecutive home wins in La Liga for the first time since May 2023. However, fans will not be holding out much hope as the Giants lost the same fixture last season 7-0 in the league, part of a 14-game winless run against Diego Simeone’s side.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of the game are Espino (injury) and Mendes (injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Rayo midfielder Unai Lopez is on something of a purple patch after scoring in back-to-back home games for the first time in his La Liga career.
- Last year's match at this arena ended with a score of 7:0 in favor of Diego Simeone's team
Probable line-up : Cardenas - Lejeune, Ratiu, Mumin, Chevaria - Ciss, Lopez, Embarba, Trejo - Nteko.
Current form
Things are looking up for Atletico Madrid, who finished above Real Madrid at the end of the last round to start their La Liga campaign on a five-game unbeaten run. Their good form continued in midweek with a 2-1 win at RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League to make it six home wins in a row in UEFA competition for the first time. They have also been a force on the road and Diego Simeone’s side now head to Rayo looking to record a sixth straight away game unbeaten in La Liga for the first time since April 2023.
Disqualifications and injuries
Barrios (muscle injury) and Lemar are out of the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- Atletico have scored goals in the 90th minute or later in four of their last five matches.

1.69Tip and bets
The Madrid derby promises some beautiful football, especially since the memories of last season are fresh, when football fans saw as many as seven goals, albeit in one goal. Today we expect active football from two teams, and we really hope to see the vaunted attack of the "mattress makers", on which a lot of money was spent, in action.
Our betting tip is total over 2.5 goals and we bet on it with odds of 2.33
Bet on the outcome
Today the visitors are the clear favorites, especially since the game is more of a Madrid derby than an away game. Most likely, the "Indians" will be able to take advantage of their class advantage and are quite capable of repeating the scenario of such a match exactly a year ago at this arena. We expect a confident success for Atletico with a comfortable score for themselves.
Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on Atletico and we bet on it with odds of 2.60
Bet on a penalty
Most likely, the main events will take place away from the goal, which will ultimately bring maximum tension to the center. In addition, the class of the defensive players will allow them to play in their penalty area without fatal errors.
Betting Tip - penalty (no). This option can be found for 1.22
