22 May 2014, London, UK (Press Release) -- This year's Champions League has thrown up a final between two teams from the same city for the first time ever, and GR88.com is backing Real Madrid to get the better of rivals Atlético.
Real are 1.41 favourites to lift the trophy and 1.91 to win the match in 90 minutes. Atlético come into the game as Spanish champions, but Diego Simeone's injury-hit side are 2.58 to win the competition for the first time or 4.00 to do so without the need for extra time or penalties (all odds are subject to change).
Last week's draw with Barcelona gave Atléti their first league title in 18 years, but at a cost. Diego Costa and Arda Turan both picked up injuries and could miss Saturday's final in Lisbon, while Carlo Ancelotti's Real will welcome back record signing Gareth Bale after the Welshman's recovery from injury.
"Winning La Liga was a remarkable achievement for Atlético Madrid, but the Champions League Final could be one game too far," said GR88.com blogger Antony Jordan.
"Real Madrid have waited more than a decade for La Decima - their 10th European Cup victory - and it looks like the wait will end this weekend."
This year's competition has seen plenty of late goals this season, most recently Cristiano Ronaldo's free-kick for Real Madrid against Bayern Munich, and more of the same at the Estádio da Luz will be great news for punters.
If a goal is scored in the 88th minute or later, GR88.com will refund selected losing pre-match bets as part of its Late Goal Refund promotion. Full details can be found at www.gr88.com/promotions.

GR88.com Bookmakers Favour Barcelona in La Liga Title Decider
15 May 2014, London, UK (Press Release) -- The fight for the La Liga title is going right to the wire, with Barcelona and Atlético Madrid facing an effective shoot-out to be named champions this weekend.
Last season's champions Barcelona are three points behind Atléti, but if they beat their opponents at Camp Nou then they will win the title on the strength of their superior head-to-head record. However any other result will see Diego Simeone's side win the league for the first time since 1996. Tata Martino's Barça are 1.78 with GR88.com to get that crucial home win, with the visitors 4.20 outsiders and the draw available at 3.55 (all odds are subject to change).
Atlético Madrid are still on course for a historic La Liga and Champions League double, and after Saturday's title clash they will begin preparing for their European final against fierce rivals Real Madrid in Lisbon on May 24th. However before they look to stop Real Madrid sealing La Decima - a 10th European Cup or Champions League win - they will be focused on securing a 10th domestic title of their own.
"Atlético know this is a huge opportunity, and with key players like Diego Costa potentially leaving in the summer this may be their best chance of winning La Liga for some time," Antony Jordan, GR88.com blogger, said.
"Atléti only need a draw to break up the Real Madrid-Barcelona duopoly in Spain, but Barça have won 16 of their 18 home games and their experience could tell this weekend."
Saturday afternoon also sees a huge game in England, with Arsenal and Hull facing off in the FA Cup Final at Wembley. The London club are 1.24 favourites to lift the trophy, while Hull can be backed at 4.00 to win the competition for the first time in their history.
GR88.com's Nil-Nil Money-Back Offer is in play for the full programme of Spanish La Liga matches this weekend. If Barcelona v Atlético Madrid or any of the other nine fixtures ends goalless, then GR88 will refund selected losing pre-match bets on the game in question.
The offer extends to this weekend's closing round of top-flight fixtures in Italy and France, where European qualification and relegation issues remain in the balance. Full terms and conditions are available at www.gr88.com/promotions.

GR88.com Bookmakers Expect Spanish Dominance in Champions League Semi-Finals
17 April 2014, London, UK (Press Release) -- The Champions League enters the semi-final stage next week, and GR88.com bookmakers anticipate the top two clubs in Spain to benefit from home advantage in the first leg.
Atlético Madrid (1.94) go into their first leg against Chelsea (4.10) on a high, having knocked out La Liga rivals Barcelona in the previous round. However with both teams facing a tough few weeks on the domestic front, Tuesday's first leg could prove cagey and the draw can be backed at 3.10 (all odds are subject to change).
On Wednesday the Spanish capital will also play host to the second semi-final, with Real Madrid (2.28) slight favourites to gain an early advantage over holders Bayern Munich (2.90). Carlo Ancelotti's side have already eliminated last year's losing finalists Borussia Dortmund, and will need to get past a second German opponent to reach the final.
Bayern are still favourites to win the whole tournament, at 2.26, but any one of the four teams could realistically end the season as champions of Europe.
"This year's Champions League has been of the highest quality throughout, and the semi-finals will be no exception," GR88.com blogger Antony Jordan said.
"With the last two winners of the competition still involved, as well as the top two clubs in Spain, we are sure to see some fantastic football next week."
The four semi-finalists have scored more than 300 goals between them in their respective domestic leagues, so there looks like being plenty of action in the first legs, however GR88's Late Goal Refund means bets won't be ruined of the scoreline changes in the final minutes.
If a goal is scored in the 88th minute or later, all match result, correct score or last goalscorer bets which had been winning before the goal went in will be refunded. The promotion also extends to matches in the English Premier League, and full terms and conditions can be found here.

GR88.com Favours Real Madrid to Extend La Liga Lead with Derby Win
27 February 2014, London, UK (Press Release) – Real Madrid take on local rivals Atlético Madrid in a top-of-the-table clash on Sunday, and GR88.com bookmakers anticipate the 32-time champions to stay at the top of La Liga with an away win.
Real made a huge statement last weekend in the race for the La Liga title, moving three points clear with a win over Elche as second-placed Barcelona and third-placed Atlético both suffered shock defeats. Carlo Ancelotti’s side are 2.08 to move six points clear of their city rivals with a win at the Estadio Vicente Calderón, with Atlético 3.25 and the draw also available at 3.25 (all odds are subject to change).
Los Merengues have already beaten Atlético twice this month, in both legs of their Copa del Rey semi-final, and the home side know another defeat will spell the end of their title challenge. But avoiding defeat will be difficult, with the visitors currently on a run of 13 wins and two draws in their last 15 La Liga games, stretching back to October.
“Atlético Madrid are in the middle of their worst run this season, losing four of their last six games in all competitions, and another defeat would surely end their chances of a 10th La Liga title,” GR88.com blogger Antony Jordan said.
“They will need to bounce back quickly from last week’s 3-0 defeat at Osasuna. However manager Diego Simeone will take heart from the fact that they beat Real Madrid 1-0 away from home in September,” he added.
That defeat was the only time this season that Real have failed to score in a La Liga game, however GR88.com’s Nil-Nil Money Back Offer means there is no need to be too concerned about a stalemate this weekend.
If the game ends goalless then GR88 will refund all losing pre-match Correct Score, Half-Time/Full-Time or Scorecast bets. The offer extends to all matches in La Liga, as well as the English Premier League, French Ligue 1, German Bundesliga and Italian Serie A, and terms and conditions can be found here.
