Atletico Madrid are unbeaten in their last 20 La Liga home matches winning 16.
Atleti are unbeaten in their last 12 meetings against Los Che, winning seven.
However, Valencia have managed to score in the last four encounters between the sides.
The visitors have also netted in eight of their nine away trips this season.
Value Lies in a Valencia Goal at Wanda
Six of Atletico Madrid’s eight home victories this season have been secured without concession, though it may be worth slightly playing against the grain this Sunday night when Valencia make the trip to Wanda Metropolitano.
There’s simply no way Atleti can be opposed for the win here after winning eight of their nine home league games this season and Los Colchoneros are now unbeaten in 20 La Liga matches at Wanda, winning 16.
Backing Diego Simeone’s side to win to nil in the capital has been a fruitful tactic for some period now, however we think Valencia could get themselves on the scoresheet in defeat this weekend.
Los Che have managed to strike in four of the last five encounters between the sides, while they have bagged in all but one of their nine games on the road this term.
Valencia have also scored in all but one of their last ten outings in all competitions, so there’s definite value in supporting the league leaders to win this Sunday night with both teams scoring.
There’s a significant gulf in quality between these sides as the La Liga table implies, though Atleti rarely win by more than they need to. With that and our main prediction in mind, we’re also tipping up a 2-1 correct score.
