Atletico Madrid, Recent FormAtlético Madrid will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their away fixture against Athletic Bilbao. They came away from that fixture with a possession stat of 39% and clocked up 3 attempts on goal with 1 on target, in comparison to Athletic Bilbao, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Diego Simeone will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Cívitas Metropolitano. It's clear that with only 1 clean sheet from the last 6 matches at home, Simeone will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Ángel Correa will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Atlético Madrid.
Rayo Vallecano, Recent FormRayo Vallecano manager Andoni Iraola will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Getafe. They achieved 65% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Getafe's tally of 6 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Iraola will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Pathé Ciss will be hoping to create problems for Atlético Madrid in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Rayo Vallecano.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 0-1 win for Atlético Madrid.
Atlético have scored in each of their last 8 games at home in the league against Los Franjirrojos. It's been a long time since Los Franjirrojos have managed to find the back of the net against Atlético, having failed to score against them in their last 6 league encounters.
Atlético have dominated this home fixture in the past, winning the last 8 times in a row that they have played Rayo at home in the league.
Antoine Griezmann will be looking forward to this meeting with Rayo, the Atlético player has found the net 4 times in the previous 3 league matches against them at Cívitas Metropolitano.
Atlético manager Diego Simeone has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Felipe de Almeida Monteiro (Thigh), Marcos Llorente (Hamstring) and Jan Oblak (Concussion) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Rayo manager Andoni Iraola ahead of this clash, with Andrés Martín (Shoulder) missing out, which gives Iraola a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
