Atlético Madrid - Las Palmas predictions

Atlético Madrid should stroll into a fairly easy victory this Saturday. The odds are decidedly in their favour, with most top bookies pricing a home win at 1.47.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Las Palmas are given 7.70 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

Los Rojiblancos missed out on locking down 3 points in their previous La Liga matchup, which they played as visitors. Predictions for the game were fairly hopeful, but they found themselves trailing behind their opponents Sevilla at halftime. They never managed to recover, either.

Las Palmas are coming off of an excellent 2:0 home win at their last showdown against Valencia. The matchup was not in Las Palmas’s favour, yet they managed to pull far ahead of their opponents in the second half.

Los Rojiblancos seem to know how to make use of a home-field advantage. They’ve won 3 home games in a row and will be looking to nail another when they take on Las Palmas this Saturday.

Las Palmas have scored 6 times in their previous 3 games. If their attacking line continues the fine scoring form, the Over markets seem like a sure bet.

Although the 1.47 betting odds for a home win show that Atletico are the favourites, their track record against Las Palmas this season is not great. They lost an earlier bout, though it was a rather narrow defeat.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Thomas Lemar, Morata, César Azpilicueta will have to sit this one out, while Las Palmas will have to make do without Éric Curbelo, Álvaro Lemos, Benito Ramírez.

Decent offers are in short supply for this match, so our best tip is to risk an HT/FT bet and go for Draw/Home. It’s quite a bold offer to take at odds of 4.88, but the betting value makes it interesting.
