29-10-2007 La Liga Betting - Matchday 10 Preview

It was a eventful weekend in Spanish football with the game between Sevilla and Valencia producing all the headlines. The Sevillistas started the game without a manager, after Juande Ramos resigned to join Spurs, while Valencia ended the game without a manager, after Quique Sanchez Flores was sacked following his side’s 3-0 defeat. Amazingly Los Che had won six of their nine league fixtures, but teams and managers in the modern game are only as good as their last result. Bettors can however rely on PinnacleSports.com to continue to provide up to 60% better La Liga betting odds.

Managerless Valencia to be Tested by Real Madrid

Valencia’s reserve team coach, Oscar Fernandez, has just three days to regroup the side after the shock dismissal of Quique Flores facing Real Madrid at the Mestalla on Wednesday night. Valencia have suffered what can only be called a blip in recent results after losing away to Rosenborg in the Champions League before the defeat at Seville. Nevertheless the club showed no patience with Flores, who had enjoyed considerable success during two full seasons at the club, suggesting all was not well behind the scenes.

Valencia have won six of their nine league fixtures, and could move within one point of current leaders, Real Madrid, should they beat them here. Madrid did the double over Valencia last season, and haven’t lost in the last seven meetings. Los Blancos recorded a comfortable 3-1 home victory on the weekend, but were beaten 2-1 by Espanyol on their last road trip. Despite the sacking of Flores, PinnacleSports.com make Valencia favourites for this intriguing game, 1.840 (0/scratch) with Real Madrid 2.090 (0/scratch).

Sevillistas Face La Liga’s Meanest Home Defence

La Liga’s other managerless club, Sevilla, take to the road without Juande Ramos, facing Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night. Their 3-0 defeat of Valencia, following his departure, suggested the players weren’t affected, probably because Ramos’s move was widely anticipated. Nevertheless, this away game will provide a stern test of the team’s resolve, having lost two of their three away games to date, the sole victory being against winless and hopeless, Levante.

Atletico Madrid are unbeaten at the Vicente Calderon Stadium and boast La Liga’s best defensive home record. After conceding in a 1-1 opening home fixture, Los Indios have rattled off three straight victories with a 10-0 aggregate. They won away from home on Sunday, keeping them in touch with the leaders, and if those above them fail to win, victory could take Atletico into second place. Sergio Aguero has been one of the main reasons behind their excellent form, his five goals make him the league’s second highest scorer. PinnacleSports.com price Atletico Madrid favourites 2.020 (0/scratch & -0.5) and Sevilla 1.909 (0/scratch & +0.5).
