Atletico Madrid Competitions: La Liga, UCL and Copa del Rey

Club Atletico de Madrid has established itself as one of the top teams in Spanish football, but in the last decade, Diego Simeone has developed them into a side capable of causing upsets and frustrating opposition in the UEFA Champions League.

Atletico Madrid has become known for forcing a challenge against the elite clubs in Spain, and this was proven in their successful La Liga campaign when they won the title in the 2020/21 season.

Over recent years, Atletico Madrid’s achievements in the Champions League have not resulted in silverware; however, they have grown into a side that is tough to play against and can fight their way through to the latter stages of the tournament.

At Bet UK, you can browse the latest betting markets for Atletico Madrid odds, with outright and live betting available for each of their competitions and matches.

Atletico Madrid 2023/24 Betting

In 2023/24, the Atletico Madrid side will be looking to build on a relatively poor campaign, having exited the UEFA Champions League at the group stage and Copa del Rey in the quarter finals. Atletico also finished in 3rd place in the previous La Liga season, so they’ll hope to go the extra step to overcome their closest rivals and place a hand on the trophy.

Mounting a challenge for the La Liga title is certainly a challenge for Atletico, given the talent that exists in the sides that have typically finished above them. Regardless, this is a team that has developed resilience over the years, making it difficult for teams to play against them.

Atletico’s progress on the European stage has been less consistent with a mix of early round exists, sometimes even falling short in the group stage.

Knockout games seem to favour the approach of Atletico Madrid, which could make them strong contenders for the upcoming Copa del Rey. Although nothing is guaranteed, as there are plenty of sides within the competition that possesses the personnel to send Atletico packing.

As the season progresses, you can start to get a better idea of how Atletico is performing, as their manager has been in the position for over ten years, potentially making them vulnerable to a period of decline, especially with key players making for the exit door.

Outright betting odds for Atletico to win any of the competitions they participate in will be available throughout the season; however, these football betting odds will be updated to reflect the likelihood of that outcome occurring.

Betting on Atletico Madrid in La Liga

Atletico Madrid has developed a strong level of consistency in La Liga throughout recent seasons but with little success to show in the sense of titles. 

Although they did top the league in the 2020/21 season, Atletico typically finishes the season in 3rd or 2nd place as Barcelona or Real Madrid beat them to the trophy. Atletico to win La Liga odds could be relatively low based on their historical results in the competition, as they will no doubt be expected to finish in the top 3 of the table. The real question lies in whether or not they can hit the level of performance and consistency required to win the title.

You can also find in-play match odds for each of the games that are taking place over the course of the season. Diego Simeone has developed a side that is tough to beat, so you could consider the betting odds for Atletico to keep clean sheets. 

As a result of a disciplined defence, they have sacrificed in attack, scoring fewer goals than their closest rivals. Even in their title-winning season, Atletico matched goals scored with Real Madrid and fell short than that of Barcelona, so it is worth considering when browsing Atletico Madrid odds.

Betting on Atletico Madrid in UEFA Champions League

Despite being consistent domestically, Atletico Madrid loses that when they enter the European stage. Recent seasons have shown us that Atletico is both capable of an early exit in the group stage, or progressing to the late stages of the Semi-Finals, which they closely lost in a Madrid derby.

For the coming season, you may wish to consider Atletico’s group competition before selecting any outright bets for them to win the competition. Based on some of the team’s that will be competing, including current holders Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern, Atletico Madrid will be far from favourites to be crowned this year’s champions.

Nevertheless, you can still consider outright and in-play betting options for their individual matches.

Betting on Atletico Madrid in Copa del Rey

Since 2017, when Atletico Madrid was knocked out in the Semi-Finals, they have struggled to find any winning form in the Copa del Rey, potentially making them one of the underperforming sides for the competition. Could this be a sign that they aren’t prioritising it, focusing their attention on the league and UCL?

Once again, Atletico's odds will not have them as favourites to win the Copa del Rey because of the recent history in the cup. The road to the final would not be easy, with the potential to be matched-up with some great sides.

Atletico Madrid's Recent History

In the last seven seasons, Atletico Madrid has failed to overcome the final hurdle in many of their knockout competitions. However, they did manage to win the La Liga title in the 2020/21 season, beating giant rivals such as Real Madrid and Barcelona for the prize.

Atletico Madrid Top Goalscorer Betting

Goals aren't the strong suit for Atletico Madrid, with the manager preferring defensive discipline over offensive play. However, goals win games, and Atletico will still need to look towards an attacking outlet to provide them.

Álvaro Morata and Antoine Griezmann are the star players in the front line, and they are the most likely names to find the goals for Atletico in the 2023/24 season. Both players have been with the side for several seasons, so they know what to expect with the league and the style of play delivered by Diego Simeone's men.

Atletico Madrid Top Assister Betting

When it comes to creating goals, Atletico's midfield is less creative than their counterparts, opting for steel over flair. However, recent seasons have shown that Antoine Griezmann is more than capable of chipping in with assists, with the ability to play through the centre and pick up positions in the wide areas. His technical qualities and passing accuracy also make him a great candidate for achieving the most assists in this side, as he can create space and find his teammates in dangerous areas. Griezmann finished with seven more assists than any other player in La Liga last season and his teammate Rodrigo De Paul finished fourth in the table with eight in 30 games.

Atletico Madrid Yellow Cards Betting

Predicting which player will receive the next yellow card is a tough bet with this Atletico Madrid side, as they have become known for receiving both yellow and red cards.

In terms of players that are most likely to receive yellow cards, the most vulnerable are those in central defence. José Giménez and Stefan Savić have been known to commit fouls due to the style of play that Atletico has adopted, leaving them vulnerable to receiving cards.

Aggressive midfielders such as Geoffrey Kondogbia and Rodrigo De Paul could also be likely candidates, given their important roles of protecting the back line and breaking down play.

However, last season Saul Niguez stood out amongst the pack picking up eight yellow cards despite playing under 1,100 minutes.
