Champions League Final Last Minute Betting Tips Pt 2
- By A.J. Ryder on May 24, 2014 16:57 GMTAtletico Madrid have always been up against it, but they have proven their ability to get the better of Real Madrid in the past so you could definitely understand why they will fancy their chances here. The Spanish Champions have a lot of class going forward and while they don’t boast the ultra-high-intensity style of play that you’ll see from Real and their marauding wingers Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, they certainly still have players who can be a goal threat from all positions and their ability to retain the ball and dictate the pace of the game always gives them an edge.

Look for Atletico Madrid at a lengthy 3.80 price tag to get the better of Real Madrid in the first 90 minutes of play. They are a much more interesting 2.50 to lift the trophy outright and get the victory in extra time or penalties as well.
You get the feeling that Atletico Madrid have a much higher likelihood of winning this match in extra time by forcing Madrid out of their comfort zone and tiring them out over the first 90 minutes. You get the feeling that they will be a threat from corners and through-balls alike as the game begins to enter its penultimate stages and they have been known to switch up their tactics late in the match in order to keep their opponents guessing. Real Madrid are a 1.50 shot to win the match by any means.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a very interesting 2.0 to score at any point in the entire match while you can lock in about 3.0 on Karim Benzema to grab an anytime goal. The extremely talented Diego Costa is priced at the same 3.0 listing while Gareth Bale is getting plenty of momentum and support at a 3.20 price tag.
Many probably figure that Bale is unlikely to score the match winning goal in a very tight cagey fixture, but he will definitely be there to add a late one if Real Madrid win the Champions League final by something like a 3-1 margin.
David Villa knows a thing or two about scoring in big matches and he’s trading at a 4.0 listing. Angel Di Maria is priced at 4.5 anytime and that’s not a bad wager in and of itself. Sergio Ramos can score as well and he’s an 8.5 shot. In matches like these, teams often have plans for the forwards but they seldom have the forward-thinking to be man-marking defenders at set pieces. Look fro Ramos on the overlap as well - he is good value at 8.50 anytime.
Cristiano Ronaldo is priced at 15.0 to score a hat trick in the Champions League Final - what a story that would be!
