Match preview
After a hard-fought and much-needed victory on Saturday night, can Atlético Madrid start to build some momentum?
At the weekend, Antoine Griezmann’s goal just after half time saw Atleti beat Athletic Club 1-0 at San Mamés.
It was a vintage defensive display by los Colchoneros, with Reinildo epitomising their rearguard action.
Diego Simeone’s side have made a mixed start to the campaign, and are also up against it in the Champions League.
So now, with crucial games to come between now and the World Cup, can Atlético find some form?
Rayo Vallecano meantime were held to a goalless draw by Madrid rivals Getafe on Friday night at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas.
Los Franjirrojos had won back-to-back home games beforehand while, on the road, Rayo have lost each of their last three.
Will that streak continue at Cívitas Metropolitano?
