Football Leagues To Avoid When Placing Accumulator Bets

3y ago

Following a slow start to the campaign, Atletico Madrid were left off the pace in the running for the league title with Barcelona and Real Madrid racing ahead of them. Slowly, Diego Simeone has managed to bring his side’s faltering campaign back on track.

However, their resurgence has been greeted with some blots of inconsistency along the way. As much as they have refused to be defeated, their pattern of securing draws have become their undoing. With a record-high 13 draws, Los Colchoneros are easily the highest drawing side in the league.

They roared to a comprehensive 5-0 victory over Osasuna few days ago to return to winning ways. Now, with a game against bottom-half outfit on the cards, Los Rojiblancos will fancy their chances of getting one over this week opposition to make it two wins in a row.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Valladolid Team News

Ever since they were stripped off their star Antoine Griezmann last summer, Atletico Madrid have never remained the same. Likened to the unfavorable effects of a Valium addict put away from his pills, Atleti seem to be experiencing separation anxiety following the loss of their French star.

With the team’s attack entrusted into the hands of Morata and Llorente, Los Colchoneros totally outclassed their mid-table opposition Osasuna on the last match-day. Following a drab first-half, we were in for a nice treat for the second forty-five of the game.

Joao Felix fired home his second goal of the game inside 56 minutes, opening the floodgates. From there on, the opposition were taken to the cleaners. Five unanswered goals were fired past Osasuna to condemn them to a humiliating defeat. Morata, Carrasco and Llorente also got in on the act.

In a game between troubled sides, Real Valladolid played host to fellow strugglers Celta Vigo last time out. A low-scoring affair was expected between these sides and they did not fail to deliver. In fact, there were to be no goals at the Estadio Jose Zorilla in this fixture.

On-lookers must have been bored to death as they watched two sides struggle to create any real openings. Nonetheless, the players couldn’t care less about what anybody felt about the game. They will be over-joyous to have posted a much-needed point on board.

For this fixture, Atletico Madrid are considered huge favorites for the win. It has been very difficult to defeat this Atleti side this season with only four losses from their 29 league games this season. This is actually the second-best record in the league, behind only Real Madrid.

They have turned the Wanda Metropolitano into something of a fortress this season and have lost just once at this venue so far. Impressively, they threw the imperious Liverpool under the bus in the Champions League earlier in the year.

Meanwhile, Valladolid have a meagre record of seven wins, twelve draws and ten defeats this season. They sit 14^th on the log and have amassed 33 points all season.

Atletico Madrid vs Valladolid Predictions

One thing is for sure, Atletico Madrid are not losing this game. However, we cannot tip them for an outright win given their affiliation with draws this season. Also, the opposing number are no strangers to draws with 12 so far – just one behind Diego Simeone’s men.

The safest punt will be a double chance backing Diego Simeone’s men for a win. For Atleti, it can only be a win or draw – a loss is not an option. Also, a low-scoring affair is expected between these sides come kickoff.
