Valencia Form and Team News

Valencia have lost four games so far in the league, considering how they played last season, that’s a brilliant start. Though its early doors, Valencia had really put the foot on the pedal in the first four games but are starting to feel the heat coming into this game. Valencia in the last season finished just outside the top ten positions in the 13thposition. They played decently throughout the season and with that had they been able to replicate what they are doing now, Valencia could’ve been in for some real fun, but it was not to be. They are playing their next game against Atletico Madrid on Sunday at home. Valencia’s recent form has not been great. The good start they had gotten to the season is slowly coming off the hooks and its high time they need to replicate that sort of a performance going forward.

Max Gomez, Hugo Duro and Manu Vallejo combined in the frontline. Goncalo Guedes, Carlos Soler, Chershev and Wass are all experienced enough to carry the team forward. If they happen to put in performances of substance, then this Valencia team could be in for some real haunt. Spanish coach Jose Bordalas needs to balance this team out and try to get the best out of them by allowing them to play freely and see what happens from there on. He has made a good start nonetheless and we need to see as to how they carry themselves in the next game. 

Atletico Madrid Form and Team News

The Cup holders are still to get off the blocks after the first 11 games, they have secured 22 points with six wins and four draws to go with one loss. They have won six and have they been convincing? The answer could be ‘NO’. Atletico Madrid played some inspirational football last season. They were so clinical that not even once in the entire season were they out of the first three positions, they were the better team through the whole season and deservedly ended up winners as well. They are playing against Valencia in thenext match and they would want to start to dominate the league. They have become the Spanish powerhouses after whatever they have done in the past few seasons, but one thing which is missing is a European Silverware which they can start eyeing to become World-beaters.

Diego Simeone has been spectacular with his reign at Atletico Madrid and he is starting to become a feared manager in the circuit. Given the form that both Real Madrid and Barcelona are in presently combined with all that’s been happening off the field as well, this season if Atletico can really capitalize, they can end up winning everything with the team they have. Luis Suarez has been playing like a dream and if he continues to do that, this team could really turn on the heat. The signing of Rodrigo De Paul also has been a highlight. The biggest surprise came on the last day of the transfer window when a certain former Atletico Legend Antonie Griezmann was signed back. This adds to a already spectacular lineup a even more lethal lad.
