Valladolid vs. Atletico: Spanish Championship Match Forecast
Valladolid will play the match of the 15th round at their home stadium, Jose Zorrilla. In the last round, the Pucelas lost to Getafe and today they will play against Atletico, who have always been a difficult opponent. What to expect from the match on November 30? Our experts have assessed the teams' chances and prepared the best bets for the game. All the answers are in this forecast.
Command Analysis
Real Valladolid
SpainCurrent form
Having been promoted from Spain’s second tier last season, Valladolid fans have spent the summer anticipating their side’s return to La Liga, but so far it has been a nightmare. Despite playing more games than the teams directly above them in the table, the hosts are rock bottom with just nine points from their opening 14 games, with the threat of immediate relegation growing with each passing week. With the majority of their points coming on home soil (6), Valladolid will be happy to return to the Estadio José Zorrilla, where they have conceded just seven goals in seven games, compared to 20 in as many away games.
Disqualifications and injuries
Anuar (hernia), Sanchez (muscle injury), de la Hoz (injury), Ozankar (muscle injury) and Amallah (calf injury) will not be able to take part in the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- Seven of the eight teams that have beaten Valladolid this season were Atletico neighbours in the top half of the table at the end of the last round
- Four of Raul Moro last five goals for Valladolid have been openers
- Valladolid have never lost three consecutive La Liga home games
Probable line-up: Ferreira-Rosa, Torres, Boyomo, Comert, Ruiz-Perez, Chuki, Koke-Salla, Ndiaye.
Atletico Madrid
SpainCurrent form
A look at Valladolid’s recent head-to-head form against Atletico highlights the dire situation for the hosts, with Diego Simeone’s side arriving here having won 13 of their last 14 La Liga games against the Pucelona. That’s six wins from seven away fixtures, during which the visitors have scored an average of 2.7 goals, which will leave the visitors expecting more today. The Indians’ morale was further boosted in midweek as they thrashed Sparta Prague 6-0 away in the UEFA Champions League, their biggest away win in European competition.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lemar (injury), Molina (muscle injury) and Le Normand (head injury) will not be able to take to the pitch.
Interesting trends for betting
- Atletico have averaged 3.36 corners per La Liga match this season, the second-lowest in the division.
- Atletico Madrid conceded two goals in the second half, the lowest in the league this season
- Atletico Anthony Griezmann has scored nine goals in 11 head-to-head matches, including three braces on the road in the league during that time.
Estimated line-up: Moldovan - Zubeldia, Lemar, Witsel, Lino - Koke, de Paul, Gomez, Riquelmy - Griezmann, Sorloth.

1.69Tip and bets
The visitors are the favorites in this game and have serious tournament motivation, while the desire to extend the series of successful games can help them. We assume that we should expect an abundance of attacking actions, which will ultimately allow each of the teams to please, and we expect an exchange of goals, as happened in two of the last three face-to-face duels.
Prediction: both will score and we bet on it for 2.10
Bet on total
Today the game can go according to the most unexpected scenario – the guests are clearly stronger, but “pusela” is also quite motivated today and is able to pull itself together at the right moment. We believe that there may be a surprise and there will be no winner. Everyone sees Atletico’s confident success, but we will take a risk and bet on a sensation and a peaceful outcome in this duel.
Our prediction is a draw and we bet on it for 4.20
Bet on corners
Most likely, the teams will focus on defense, and therefore it is unlikely that we should expect an excess of corners. In addition, this option occurred in three of the last six face-to-face matches, which is what we expect today.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.96
