Parlay: Botafogo VS Atlético Madrid 2025-06-23
Best Same Game Parlay: Atlético Madrid Moneyline + Botafogo Covers the Spread
Odds: ~3.26 (Bovada)
### Why This Combo Works
1. Atlético Madrid (-0.75) at 1.69
- The reigning La Liga champions are a heavy favorite, having dominated Seattle Sounders 3-1 in their last outing. Their attacking depth (Simeone’s system) and defensive discipline make them a strong pick to win outright.
2. Botafogo (+0.75) at 1.93
- The Brazilian side stunned PSG 1-0 with a defensive masterclass, proving they can shut down elite teams. A 1-0 or 2-1 loss to Atlético would see them cover the spread. Given Atlético’s recent 3-1 win, they may not overextend, keeping the margin tight.
### Key Stats
- Atlético Madrid: 3-1 win vs. Seattle Sounders (3 goals scored).
- Botafogo: 1-0 win vs. PSG (1 goal scored, 0 conceded).
- Total Goals Line: 2.5 (even money on Over/Under).
### Risk/Reward
- Combined Odds: 1.69 * 1.93 ≈ 3.26 (30.5% implied probability).
- Scenario: Atlético wins 1-0 or 2-1. Botafogo’s defensive resilience (1 clean sheet in 2 games) and Atlético’s potential to avoid a blowout make this plausible.
### Alternative Parlay (Weaker Option)
- Atlético Madrid Moneyline + Over 2.5 Goals (Odds: ~3.25)
- Less likely, as Botafogo’s 1-0 win suggests they’ll sit deep and defend. Atlético’s 4-goal outburst vs. Seattle may not repeat.
Verdict: Go with Atlético Madrid to win and Botafogo to cover the spread. It balances Atlético’s dominance with Botafogo’s defensive grit—smart for a high-upside parlay.
