Real Valladolid vs Atletico Madrid Tickets

Real Valladolid vs Atletico Madrid is a fixture that certainly attracts plenty of fans to the Estadio Jose Zorrilla when it is scheduled to take place on the La Liga list. With one of the top teams to have played in Spanish football visiting, it is one of the biggest games to be played at the stadium each season and one where supporters are able to see some huge star names that they would not see on a regular basis.

Real Valladolid are one of the smaller clubs in the division, however they have some history in Spain’s top division that some of the other teams are unable to say they have had. Pucela have managed to amass over 40 years in the league, making them one of the most experienced teams, despite having yo-yoed between La Liga and the Segunda Division for a number of years. The Castille and Leon region club have perhaps gained a cult status over the years as well, due to the presidency of Brazilian legend Ronaldo.

Atletico Madrid are one of the most successful teams to have been formed in the country, as they have been able to acquire a number of pieces of silverware over the years, despite a period of time they spent in the country’s second tier. Los Rojiblancos have won La Liga on no fewer than 10 occasions, as well as finishing strong in Europe’s top club competitions, such as the Champions League and Europa League.

As such, with a club of the stature of the outfit from the capital, it is no surprise the Estadio Jose Zorrilla becomes alive with a number of spectators for the encounter each season. With a capacity of 27,846, there is rarely an empty seat left in the stadium as supporters want to watch their side compete against one of the very best.

Unfortunately for the hosts, results have favoured Los Rojiblancos in the past, although that could be down to the star power that they possess in their line-up, making it all the less surprising. Previous fixtures have seen results such as 2-3, 0-2 and 0-4 all recorded, although Pucela did manage to get a 0-0 draw as recently as 2019.

Real Valladolid versus Atletico Madrid has all the ingredients to be a hugely exciting encounter between the two sides, even if it does generally favour the hosts. Goals appear to be on offer regularly, whilst the atmosphere is of the highest levels due to one of Spain’s top sides visiting the Estadio Jose Zorrilla.
