You’ll find Atletico Madrid listed as the clear favourites, but not the odds-on favourite which is something important to remember. They are close, however, and they carry an 11/10 price tag to win the match within 90 minutes. The draw pays 11/5 while a Fulham victory is listed at a 13/5 price. I think that’s great odds for Fulham supporters and I can see a fair amount of betting volume coming down on that, especially during the in-play betting.
The thing that blows this match wide open is an early goal. While Madrid certainly boast more big-name goalscorers, I think that Fulham are more likely to get goals from all over the pitch. I also think that they may be a bit more potent from set-pieces. Additionally, I think Madrid will be more thrown-off by an early goal than Fulham would be, as the Cottagers have made a bit of a habit of coming from behind to win a match.
The bookies seem confident in a lower-scoring affair so anybody who thinks this one will turn into a goal-fest is certainly in for some quality prices. The favoured correct score result appears to be Atletico to win 1-0 at a 5/1 price while a 1-1 draw pays out at an 11/2 margin. Fulham to win 1-0 pays 15/2 while Madrid to win 2-1 pays out at the same margin. A 2-1 result to Fulham pays out at 11/1.
A 3-2 result to Atletico Madrid is an enticing 28/1 while 3-2 to Fulham pays a massive 40/1. A 2-2 draw pays out at 16/1.
A penalty to be awarded at any point in the match trades at 3/1 while that penalty is 7/2 to be awarded and scored. A penalty to be awarded and missed pays out at 11/1.
If you think we’re headed for extra-time here, you can add a little extra juice to your bets by dabbling in the method of victory market. Atletico in Extra time or penalties pays out at 8/1 for each option while Fulham are 8/1 on penalties and 11/1 to win the match in extra time.
Personally, I think that extra-time is quite a likely scenario and that the Cottagers would definitely be the favourites in a sudden death scenario. A red card at any point in the match pays 12/5 and that could be the defining moment of the whole match. I think that Fulham are the value play here and Atletico will underestimate Roy Hodgson’s side at their peril.
