The starting lineup for each team in their previous match in this tournament is listed.
Valladolid
Paulo Pezzolano's side dropped to the bottom of the table after the last round. The club has the lowest scoring record in La Liga – 10 goals (tied with Getafe) – and has conceded the most goals, with 27. Valladolid enters the upcoming match on a four-game winless streak in the league. The team lost away to Osasuna (0-1) and Getafe (0-2), while at home, they were defeated by Villarreal (1-2) and drew with Athletic (1-1).
- In their last 13 La Liga matches, Valladolid has secured only one victory (3 draws and 9 losses).
- Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 6 of the last 8 games in the league.
- Valladolid conceded first in 6 of their last 8 La Liga matches.
Atletico Madrid
The capital club has won three consecutive matches in La Liga. They defeated Las Palmas (2-0) and Alaves (2-1) at home and Mallorca (1-0) away. This is the first such winning streak in the current championship for Atletico. Diego Simeone's side continues to hold third place in the table, with the gap to leaders Barcelona reduced to five points. Notably, Atletico's defense is the best in La Liga, with only 8 goals conceded.
- In their last 15 La Liga games, Atletico has lost only once (9 wins and 5 draws).
- No more than three goals have been scored in 12 of Atletico's last 13 league matches.
- Atletico has lost only once in the second half of their last 15 La Liga games (10 wins and 4 draws).
Valladolid vs. Atletico Madrid: Match Prediction
The capital team has few issues when facing Valladolid. In their last 14 La Liga encounters, Atletico has won 13 times, with one draw. In this series, Atletico has conceded only 7 goals while scoring 34. Home advantage hasn't helped Valladolid, as they have lost 6 and drawn 1 in their last 7 home matches against Atletico, with the visitors scoring at least two goals in six of those games.
Paulo Pezzolano's side is winless in six consecutive home matches in La Liga (3 draws and 3 losses). Meanwhile, Atletico has lost only once in their last 10 away league games, securing 6 wins and 3 draws. Diego Simeone's team is in excellent form and has a good chance to challenge Barcelona and Real Madrid this season, so it's unlikely they will drop points against the league's bottom team.
My prediction – Atletico Madrid win
