Valencia vs Atletico Madrid Predictions

Atletico can edge Saturday’s contest

Atletico Madrid are the best bet to win at Valencia on Saturday. Diego Simeone’s side travel to the Mestalla to face Carlos Corberan’s team and can get the away win.

Atletico Madrid are eight places and 21 points above Valencia in the table. The hosts are 12th with ten wins from their 33 games this season, while Atletico Madrid, who have 18 wins, are fourth.

Atletico Madrid have scored an average of 1.78 goals a game in their 18 Primera Liga games against bottom-half teams this season, while Valencia have managed just 0.33 goals a game in their three home games against teams in the top five.

Atletico Madrid have gone unbeaten in nine of the last ten Primera Liga head-to-head meetings with Valencia.

They will be optimistic of finding the net, having scored in nine consecutive La Liga games.

Atletico Madrid haven’t shipped a goal in five of the last seven Primera Liga meetings with Valencia.

Atletico Madrid’s last five Primera Liga matches have all had three goals or more, and a 2-1 away win looks a decent correct-score bet. Atletico were 2-1 winners against Valencia last time they met in the league, and the hosts have been on the wrong end of a 2-1 scoreline five times this season.
