Villarreal vs Atletico Madrid Prediction & Picks - LaLiga
by Stephen Abiola in LaLiga Picks
La Liga is back, and with a thrilling matchup for that matter. Atletico Madrid start the season with a tricky trip to El Madrigal to take on Villarreal on Monday evening. They finished fourth last season after being outpaced by Girona, Barcelona, and Real Madrid. They’ll now dust themselves up and go hunting for their 12th La Liga title. A win on the road against the Yellow Submarine could send a massive statement across the league. However, Villarreal have their sights firmly fixed on European football this term and beating Atletico on Matchweek 1 is on the to-do list. They come into this matchup after suffering a 4-0 defeat in a friendly match against EPL side Brighton. But that won’t determine anything in this nail-biting game.Limited Offer.
