In-Depth Betting Tips and Predictions for Villarreal vs Atletico Madrid

Villarreal and Atletico Madrid clash for their season opening games, with both sides looking to prove a point this season. Atleti will want to once more compete for the title, and Villareal regain their place in the European spots.

Whilst Villarreal might be hoping for a positive season, their results in pre-season suggest they might not find it simple. The Yellow Submarine found their friendlies tricky, losses to Leicester and Brighton sum up their fortunes.

Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, had a fantastic pre-season campaign. They beat Juventus and Getafe, scoring 12 goals across their four preparation matches. Whilst not perfect in these games, and mostly playing against weaker opposition, their results suggest they are better prepared than their opponents for the oncoming season.

The signing of Julian Alvarez bodes well for Atleti’s chances.
