The Joker's Bet of the Day: Simeone says win

Sedan got off their backsides and scored three for the Joker last night. But Tours didn't move, and so the bet went down. 13/15 ain't bad, to coin a phrase.

Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid are chasing a Champions League place. With three rounds of the season to go, they're six points off the pace. But Malaga, one of the incumbents, have to go to Barcelona tonight and then visit Atletico themselves at the weekend. That lead could easily be wiped out in time for the last game of the season, just so long as Atletico beat Real Sociedad this evening.

Atletico have won 4/5 at home, while Real, who have little left to play for this season, have taken only two points from 21 on the road. They've conceded before half-time in six of those seven games and Atletico, with the Europa League final to think about, will keen to get this job done early.

Recommended Bet: Back Atletico Madrid/Atletico Madrid @ 2.01/1 v Real Sociedad
