On the hunt for a fourth consecutive win in Valladolid
Atlético de Madrid visit the Nuevo Zorrilla to take on Valladolid on Matchday 15. The objective, get our fourth consecutive win in LaLiga.
We are looking to maintain momentum and keep building in LaLiga. After the wins against Las Palmas (2-0), Mallorca (0-1) and Alavés (2-1), there is no alternative to keep building on our three wins in three games at the top of LaLiga.
Valladolid are currently bottom of the LaLiga EA Sports table, with nine points, with a total of one win (2-3 away to Vitoria), a draw (1-1 at home to Athletic) and three defeats (1-2 at home to Villarreal and 1-0 to Osasuna and then 2-0 loss to Getafe) in the last five matches played. A situation made more dangerous given their need to collect points.
Atlético de Madrid go to a stadium which brings back great memories, in the 2020/21 season we won the league on the final day there. Furthermore, we have won four times and drawn once in our most recent visits to Pucela. In the 2013/14 season, we ran out 0-2 winners, 2018/19 season we won 2-3, with a 0-0 draw in the 2019/20 season, before a 1-2 win in the 2020/21 season thanks to goals from Correa and Luis Suárez to win the LaLiga and then a 2-5 win on the most recent visit in the 2022/23 season.
Diego Pablo Simeone’s side come into the match after a goal frenzy away to Sparta Prague, on Matchday Five of the League Phase of the Champions League (0-6) thanks to goals from Julián Alvarez (2), Correa (2), Llorente and Griezmann.
