Atletico Madrid vs Valencia Prediction

Valencia do not have such good stats on an away field this season. On their last 10 matches on an away field, they have lost even 6, with an average of 2.2 goals conceded per match. Atletico Madrid on the other hand are decent on a home field, winning 6 out of their 10 last matches. Their recent win against Barcelona seems like a huge ego boost for them, which is why we expect to see them win on this match on a home field.

Correct score Prediction: 2-1
