Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid Predictions and Betting Tips

Football betting tips for Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid in the 2014 UEFA Champions League Final at the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon, kick-off time 7.45pm.

Atletico Madrid have succeeded everyone's wildest expectations this season, finishing ahead of the dominant Barcelona and Real Madrid to win La Liga for the first time since 1996. This weekend they aim to go one better by claiming their first ever Champions League trophy, and put a halt to Real Madrid claiming their inevitable 'La Decima'.

Atletico are 10/3 with Betfred to complete the double, while Real Madrid are 21/10 with Bet365 to complete a cup double of their own – they defeated Barcelona last month to claim the Copa del Rey. A draw in regulation time is best-priced 13/5 with Boylesports.

Paddy Power have boosted the price of both teams to win in 90 minutes. Both these offers are for new customers only.

Cristiano Ronaldo has continued his incredible goalscoring feats this season, bagging 31 goals in La Liga (a figure matched in Europe only by Luis Suarez in the Premier League) and 16 goals in the Champions League. Despite some injury concerns coming into this match, he's a man for the big occasion. Ronaldo is our Champions League final betting tip to score first as he scored in the UCL final back in 2008 and at 10/3 (Bet365), he looks a good bet to do so again.

Despite being linked with Chelsea for most of this season, Diego Costa has kept his head down and banged the goals in for Atletico Madrid. He's been their key player this season, contributing 27 goals to their title-winning league campaign, behind only Ronaldo and Messi. Costa is another injury concern for this match, having had an injection of horse placenta in order to play this Saturday. Regardless, he's scored when Atleti have needed him to this season and is 12/5 to do so at anytime during this final, if he starts the match that is our second Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid betting tip.

Real Madrid claimed their first trophy of the Carlo Ancelotti era last month in the Copa del Rey against Barcelona, with Gareth Bale scoring a stunning late winner. Can he do so again and round off an impressive first season with Real? Bale to score last is my final football betting tip at 6/1.
