Rampant Atlético to bare their teeth
Atlético Madrid have had a reputation for being a solid defensive unit that lacks attacking flair. They have started to dispel that stereotype this season by scoring the highest number of goals in La Liga up to this point.
As part of our Atlético Madrid vs Mallorca predictions, we are backing them to cover the handicap. That means they to win by at least a two-goal margin when they welcome Mallorca to the Wanda Metropolitana. If they win by exactly one goal, the stakes are returned.
Atlético have won all six of their home matches this season. This includes impressive wins over Real Madrid and Real Sociedad. Over this period, they averaged 2.67 goals per game. They are taking on a side that have managed to win just one league game on the road thus far.
Bet 1: Atlético Madrid handicap -1 (home -1) @ 2.09 Bet9ja
Cards at a premium once again
Atlético’s card stats are lower than you’d expect. Their matches have had the fifth-lowest number of cards so far in the division this season. In fact, their home matches have averaged 4.17 cards per game. The average number of cards per game in La Liga this season is significantly higher with 5.49.
Mallorca matches have seen the 4th fewest cards in La Liga. When they visited this ground last season, cards were issued as they succumbed to a 3-1 defeat. This brings us to one of our tips for this weekend’s clash – under 4.5 cards at odds of 2.37.
Bet 2: Under 4.5 cards in the match @ 2.37 Bet9ja
Simeone’s attacking impetus comes at a cost
The next one of our Atlético Madrid vs Mallorca predictions is for both teams to score in the match. We can back this at odds of 2.28 with Bet9ja on the GG market. Simeone’s side have earned a reputation for being solid at the back throughout his tenure.
But they have adopted a more attacking style this season. Atletico may have a perfect record at the Wanda Metropolitana but they usually allow a goal. They have conceded in all six of their La Liga matches at home with an average of 1.17 goals conceded there.
Mallorca have scored in five of their seven away matches with an average of 1.29 goals per game. Additionally, they found the net in this fixture last season.
Bet 3: GG (both teams to score) @ 2.28 Bet9ja
Marvellous Morata deserves his plaudits
Atlético’s attacking impetus has enabled Alvaro Morata and Antoine Griezmann to thrive at the top end of the pitch. The team have been creating a wealth of chances and those players have already scored 15 league goals between them.
Earlier this month, Diego Simeone described Morata as being on a par with Erling Haaland. The veteran Spanish forward has enjoyed a remarkable career, but he hasn’t always enjoyed the purple patch of goalscoring form that he finds himself in now.
Morata has scored seven league goals from an xG of 5.1. The Spain international averages 0.9 goals per 90 minutes played at home. That is made even more impressive by the fact he isn’t on penalty duty. We can bet on Morata to score here at odds of 2.30 which looks a good price.
Bet 4: Morata to score @ 2.30 Bet9ja
