Atletico Madrid – Las Palmas
Our Atletico Madrid – Las Palmas betting tip is: Both teams to score – 2.16 odds
- The last meeting ended 5-0 to Atlético
- Both come from victories in the Copa del Rey
- Champions League ambitions meet relegation battle
Atletico Madrid face Las Palmas at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in their home game on Sunday, November 3 at 2:00 p.m. Both teams have performed very differently so far this La Liga season. Atletico Madrid, currently in fourth place, have a stable position in the upper half of the table with 20 points and a goal difference of +9. However, their form over the last five games shows some inconsistency with two draws, two wins and one defeat. They recently managed to get another narrow win in the cup. Coach Diego Simeone will rely on the team’s solid performance to break down Las Palmas’ defense.
Las Palmas, on the other hand, are fighting against relegation and, with only 9 points, are in third-to-last place in the table. Las Palmas’ defense will be particularly challenged in the upcoming game to withstand Atletico Madrid’s offensive power, a task they have rarely been up to in the past.
Atletico, for their part, will be keen to avoid increasing the gap at the top of the table and will be looking to secure three points against the visitors. However, history has shown that supposedly easy opponents can turn into unpleasant stumbling blocks. The game on Sunday promises to be interesting not only because of the different table constellations.

Atletico Madrid form & record check
Atletico Madrid have shown inconsistent form in the current La Liga season, ranging from impressive performances to unexpected defeats. The club currently sits in fourth place in the league with 20 points. In their last La Liga game, they suffered a bitter 1-0 defeat against Real Betis, a setback that highlighted the fact that Atletico has to be careful against well-organized teams. Before that, however, they had impressed with a convincing 3-1 victory against Leganes.
Recently suffered some setbacks
Nevertheless, their inconsistency remains a problem, as evidenced by the recent 3-1 home defeat to Lille in the Champions League. Under the leadership of Diego Simeone, the team always manages to turn important games around, as underlined by the 2-0 Copa del Rey victory over Vic. Alexander Sørloth has proven to be extremely clinical in front of goal and could be a decisive factor in the upcoming game against Las Palmas. Overall, the Rojiblancos need to stabilize their defense, as they have conceded too many goals in both the league and on the European stage.

Las Palmas Form & Bilanz Check
UD Las Palmas are currently in a promising form in La Liga, raising hopes of another strong finish to the season. The Canary Islanders could continue their recent success in the exciting clash with Atletico Madrid in the upcoming matchday. Las Palmas have shown their power in impressive fashion with a stunning 7-0 win over Ontiñena in the Copa del Rey. Particularly striking was J. Mata’s hat-trick, which almost single-handedly took apart the opponent’s defense.
Las Palmas have already underlined their ambitions in the previous league games. With a narrow 1-0 victory against Girona on October 26 and a remarkable 3-2 away win against Valencia on October 21, Diego Martinez’s men have shown strength and fighting spirit. However, the islanders have not always lived up to their role as favorites, suffering defeats to Celta Vigo and Villarreal at the beginning of October, which were due to defensive inadequacies.
Las Palmas wants out of the relegation battle
Las Palmas currently sits in 18th place in the league with 9 points, which is a challenge to avoid relegation. However, their current form indicates strong potential for the remaining part of the season. Sandro Ramírez Castillo, whose precise shots repeatedly cause difficulties for opponents, could once again play a key role. For the upcoming showdown against Atletico Madrid, however, Las Palmas must focus on defensive stability in order to avoid continuing the negative trend of conceding goals.
